Note: Curtains of precious fabric suspended behind a figure as an act of veneration. The tradition had origins in honorific hangings behind the place where a ruler sat or stood. In pictorial convention, the depiction of similar hanging cloths was extended to appear behind sacred figures and portraits of all kinds, not just portraits of rulers. For similar fabrics arranged in a canopy, use "cloths of estate."
