Initially between the 15th and 16th centuries, especially in Lombardy and Piedmont, in noble homes and public buildings it became a fashionable custom to decorate the ceilings with painted wooden panels: the 'ceiling tablets' or 'tiles', which were arranged inclined along the beams, alternating with the shelves and joists that supported the ceilings. Crema and Cremona are the centers where production established itself with particular vigor and refinement. The small painted panels depicted geometric and floral motifs, emblems, coats of arms, real or fantastic animals, cherubs with musical instruments, signs of the zodiac, biblical or literary scenes, historical and ancient mythological characters, allegorical figures and crafts.
