DOME MOSAIC OF ST MARY’S CHURCH
The mosaic of the cupola is now lost but known from a 1699 copperplate engraving, which shows the 24 elders of the Apocalypse worshipping Christ in Majesty, flanked by two angels. The elders have risen from their seats and are wearing golden crowns. In 1719, the mosaic was removed and replaced with baroque stucco.
