The scene takes place in an aquarium, that of an owner in love with Egypt who owns a cat (sphynx) and an exotic fish in the colours of the Pharaohs' Nemes. According to my own artistic approach, it depicts the secret jealousy of the sphynx towards this fish ‘pampered’ by Egyptian breliques and thus becoming more ‘Egyptian’ than it is. The aquarium is decorated to resemble the Giseh of today, with its two great pyramids, Khéops and Khéphren, and the Sphynx personified by the cat itself. The scene also features Osiris and Anubis in a rite of psychostasy, but it is not clear whether this is a daydream longed for by the jealous Sphynx or a composition of the aquarium as simple plastic figurines.
