Directly above you is a marble canopy supported by spiral columns, this
baldacchino modestly illustrates the luxuriousness of the Imperial
Residence.  It is these quick, impressionistic touches that suggest space
and atmosphere, and isolates this structure artistically from all others
found within the palace walls.  A cool simplicity of designs has been
rendered upon the floor, fairly conservative and obviously used to intensify
the spiritual experience.  Far to the north you can see the tetrarch
chamber, and the building exit to your south.
