Answer:  Pichhwais were used for marriage processions.
Explanation: The passage mentions that pichhwais were painted on cloth for the deity Shrinathji and were used for festive occasions, not specifically for marriage processions.

Nathdwara, a town close to Udaipur and a prominent Vaishnava centre, also emerged as a school of painting in the late seventeenth century. Large backdrops called pichhwais were painted on cloth for the deity, Shrinathji, for several festive occasions.
