What is a "canopy"?
A canopy is a covering made of fabric or other material that is hung or placed above an area, such as a bed, seating, or outdoor space. It is often used for decorative purposes, to provide shade, or to create a sense of privacy or protection. Canopies are typically supported by a frame or suspended from a ceiling, and they can range from simple designs to elaborate ones, adding elegance and style to a room or outdoor setting. In some cases, canopies are also used to shield from the sun or rain.
