What you’re looking at

This page advertises "$800.00 in Prizes for the Best Titles" (details on Page 10), with a price of 15 cents. The large illustration shows a figure in a cowboy hat and dark clothing crouching within oversized letters spelling "LIFE." The figure appears to be a caricature, though the specific identity is unclear from the image alone. The posture and styling suggest this is likely promoting a contest or story featured in that issue of Life magazine. The date (JUN 20 1922) is stamped on the illustration. This appears to be a cover or promotional image designed to encourage readers to purchase the magazine and participate in the advertised title-writing contest.
