That's what it is a big lion's head sail.  I think it is supposed to be a
tapestry hanging behind the throne.  Other then that it is a bunch of air.  But
what you see in the picture of a lion's head cloth piece is actually part of
the set.

The arch part of the porticulus is one part.  Overall it really isn't that bad
except for the fact that what look like 3 2x2 inverted gray slopes are actually
molded into the arch.  That IMO is the real problem most people have with it.
