How did the duke make sure that people in general do not see the portrait of the duchess in the my last duchess poem?

In lines 9-10, the quote "(since none puts by The curtain I have drawn for you, but I)" is the reason why the general public aren't able to view the painting. He has it painted on the wall, covered by a curtain that only he can open for viewing. He does this because he doesn't want other people 'oggling' the duchess. He presumably killed her in the first place, to stop her and other men from flirting. He wants to 'preserve' her for himself in that painting.
