Considering that it looks to be a very old house, that room may have been decorated in the 1920s, when Ancient Egypt was all the rage. I don't see a problem here.

According to the write-up the house was built in 1859 but the Egyptian suite was painted by Mike Lewis, who appears to be an artist based in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. Looking him up I found this story from CBC when it was on the market in 2020 and it seems it was commissioned by the then-owner, a historian and filmmaker.
