Byzantine mosaics found on the ceiling of the Mausoleum of Galla Placidia in Ravenna, Italy.
So this is not the starry skies ceiling of the Galla Placidia Mausoleum, this one is but I am still looking for the origin of the prev image
We've gone through like. Half a millennium's worth of famous churches and it's still a mystery.
With that being said, it's delightful how many craftspeople throughout the ages looked up at a ceiling and thought "you know what would fuck here, my liege? a starry sky mosaic."
All of this to say, I found it with a little help from @saessenach and after about 5 hours of scientific psychosis, this is from Saint Vladimir's Cathedral in Tauric Cherosonesos in Sevastopol, in Crime. The mosaic appears after the 2024 restauration, it seems. So this is not from Ravenna, it is a neo-byzantine restoration (by the Russian government, I concluded after multiple articles translate poorly from russian). It is unclear to me if this is part of the New Chersonesos complex (aka a museum and temple dedicated to the ancient and Byzantine culture of the area) but I do strongly believe it is:
