Created in 1430, this masterpiece can be found in the Old Sacristy of San Lorenzo Basilica in Florence, Italy. The image captures a moment frozen in time, as if we are transported back to July 4th, 1442. The ceiling of the basilica's Sagrestia Vecchia is adorned with a celestial scene depicting the journey of the sun through various constellations. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring this astronomical spectacle to life. Giuliano d Arrighi Pesello's talent shines through his meticulous brushwork and artistic vision.

This piece not only serves as a visual delight but also sparks curiosity about humanity's fascination with celestial bodies.
