The image displays an outdoor gathering in Mepe, Ghana. In the foreground, a dark-skinned male is seated on a red plastic chair, clad in a red toga-style garment and green beaded necklaces, with dark markings on his face. He holds a white, ornate staff topped with a silver, abstract finial; a partially visible individual to the left supports the staff. To his right, another dark-skinned male is seated on an ornate golden wooden stool, dressed in a black garment with gold and multi-colored patterns, wearing numerous layered necklaces and beaded anklets. His feet are positioned on a leopard-print footrest. Several males stand in the midground, observing. One male wears a black and white striped cloth. The immediate environment consists of unpaved earth. In the background, light-colored buildings with corrugated metal roofs are present, along with hung laundry and green tree foliage.
