A large, rectangular, vertically oriented painting, approximately 2.5 meters wide by 1.8 meters high, is depicted. The artwork, rendered in an expressionistic style, features approximately 20 stylized human figures arranged in a dense group against a dark, mottled blue background. The figures are predominantly male, depicted from the chest or waist up. Most are uniformly dressed in black suits, white collared shirts, and black ties. Several figures, strategically placed within the composition, wear full white robes or garments, providing visual contrast. Facial features are abstract, rendered with bold, non-naturalistic colors including shades of yellow, orange, red, purple, brown, and blue, suggesting diverse skin tones and emphasizing texture over realism. One figure in a white robe, positioned left-of-center, has an outstretched hand with a yellow-brown skin tone. The figures' stances are largely static, facing generally forward or slightly turned, creating a sense of a gathered assembly. The painting is mounted against an indoor wall constructed of large, light beige rectangular tiles, arranged horizontally with thin grout lines. The floor, visible in the foreground, matches the wall's tiled material. The scene is illuminated by overhead artificial lighting. This artwork, identified as "The Delegation" by Kwesi Botchway, is situated in the lobby of the Kempinski Hotel Gold Coast City in Accra, Ghana.
