Photograph of a full length portrait of Horace Wigan (c.1851-85) standing, facing right, his face captured in profile. He holds both hands up in front of his chest, forming fists as if ready to fight. He poses beside a sign reading 'B.B.'. Wigan's stance refers to his character in the 'Benicia Boy', a play referring to the American fighter John C. Heenan (1834-73).
