For troubleshooting run "xhost +" on your desktop and try again.

This command will disable all authentication on your X server and allow any
client to connect and grab your screen, keyboard etc. So use it only for
debugging.

If this works, then you need to use xauth to add the X server's cookie to
the remote client. xauth manpage has sufficient details.

SSH does this behind the scenes when you use the -X option. But since you
have a hop in-between,  twice, xauth is not getting through.
