It is a nod to the Old Testament tradition of giving honor to the king’s mother, who ruled with the king rather than the king’s wife. As David set his mother upon a throne at his right hand (1st Kings 2:18-20), so Mary, when she arrived in heaven, was seated by her Son the King at his right hand, arrayed in gold. (Psalm 45:9)
