We faced this problem as well. Our gate was a little better - rectangular and painted white - but the solution we settled on might work for you, too.

We used the "until dawn" curtain from Tord Boontje - you can get this at MoMA or other outlets. http://www.unicahome.com/p14687/artecnica/until-dawn-curtains-by-tord-boontje.html

There is a nice version which is white one side, green the other. We actually liked the white on the inside / green facing the outside: it went well with our walls on the inside, and when the sun was up, the daylight bounced off the green side and caused a green glow on the bars and in the window cavity which was unexpected and really beautiful.


Apartment Therapy New York | NY Good Questions: How Can I Hide These Security Bars?

From working on public schools built around the turn of the century in New York, I've seen that a typical coat closet detail was a vent, presumably to keep things from mildewing and allowing them to dry faster. The doors had louvers for airflow. So I bet this vent was for that purpose as well.

There is a big installation of the mesh in the window of the MoMA bookstore (in the new building) on 53rd street. The edges are kind of raggedy but the overall effect is nice.
