Sitting on the work desk is an oil painting with beeswax on canvas representing a human figure in an office suit with their hands interlaced on their lap as if they were attending a work meeting. The man has some recognisable features like the clothing, but the face is cut off the painting to symbolise the depersonalisation that occurs in the repetitive routine of work. The suit and shirt depicted are the colour palette employed within the spectrum of "Corporate blue," a subdued and tranquil shade that imparts a feeling of professionalism. This hue is commonly utilised in corporate branding, office decor, and business attire, symbolising formality, trust, and security.
