The passage explains fresco technique for ceiling figures, noting modern work often uses canvas fixed to the ceiling. A reclining model on a couch with varied pillows shapes the pose while the artist, on a ladder, views from above and paints the figure, skipping the pillows to keep an airy, aerial effect. If executed well, the result reads as a floating maiden in the clouds.
