I think I found a solution ! There is a function called
"sipConvertToCpp" that takes a PyObject*, another one pointing on the
base class we expect and return a C++ pointer. This solution seems to
work fine and even do some type testing. This leads me to another
question :

For now, I get the base class argument by getting the "__class__" object
in the python object and verify by its string that it's really a
'Qt.QImage' class. (Boost.Python helps me doing that). But I'd prefer
asking SIP for the PyObject* corresponding to the wanted class. Do
someone know how to do that ? I found some classes called
sipClass_QPixmap for example, but first there is no sipClass_QImage and
second, they're not defined in any header ...

Thanks,
