This word was encounter in the short film presented on Wednesday 10, 2014. The word was also in the list to define. The word was shown in the beginning of the film https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0pDE4VX_9Kk#t=264 . During the time of 4:25 the word is mention “…They are surrounded not by gilt frames, but by the familiarity of the room your in, and the people around you…”
In order to understand the word I used the word used in the sentence and the definition in order find out what it means. I believe the word means in the passage that the painting are no longer like gold because there are as many copies of the painting.
