Other comments:
The three individual silks which comprise this picture are all genuine Stevens manufacture. It is unlikely however that the matt is original.

The three silk portraits are recorded individually as:

so304	Gladstone, Rt. Hon. W.E. (small silk, title woven above portrait)
so128	Buffalo Bill (Col. W.F. Cody)
so96	Beaconsfield, The Late Earl of (smaller silk, words on silk above portrait, flowers across jacket)
