All you have to do it try and make a reconstruction. You won't be able to make quilted cloth look like either the Mars of Todi or the Fresco and still provide any sort of protection. IMO Connolly is correct about the Mars of Todi. Dunno about the fresco. All illustrations can be interpreted dozens of ways. People see what they want to see.
