In this microcosm of undersea society, the queen rides on a lionfish, as lions are traditional symbols of royalty. Beside her, her self-important chamberlain rides a puffer-fish, and the little armored soldier charges on a spiny lobster. The hunchbacked jester rides a clownfish, and he alone seems to be aware that we are watching this strange procession. The plants and animals in the scene come from all over he world and would never exist in the same place. - JCC
