The central figure, a distinguished Gold Coast Chief, stands proudly at the forefront with his official umbrella held high, symbolizing his status and power within the community. Surrounding him are members of his family and retinue, each playing a vital role in supporting and upholding his position.
The intricate details of their attire reflect both cultural heritage and British influence, showcasing a blend of tradition and colonialism that characterized this period in history. The chief's regal presence exudes strength and wisdom, embodying centuries-old customs passed down through generations.
