Whatsmore, if you look closely at the veil of glass that covers this object you may notice there the silhouettes of other regardists, the audience of onlookers standing behind the two formal actors.
Possibly our two lead actors can also see these ghostly presences reflected in front of them, afloat upon Océanie, la mer.
Maybe you, too, are set to sea your own regard in all of this.
