Religion

Polish term or phrase: zasłaniany

W kontekście: "W kościele znajduje się ołtarz główny z obrazem Matki Boskiej Łaskawej zasłanianym wizerunkiem św. Wojciecha". Z całym szacunkiem dla chrześcijaństwa - zasłanianie obrazów to dla mnie element obcy kulturowo. Czy ktoś wie, o co w tym zdaniu chodzi?

Ewentualnie synonim może będzie lepszy:
...the altar is veiled and unveiled by a picture sliding along vertical guides...

IMHO "veiled" chyba będzie najlepsze w tym kontekście.

Asker: Thank you.

Asker: to be surmounted by sth - być zwieńczonym czymś, so I think it's not this context.
