The ceilings of churches and chapels, like the Sistine Chapel before Michelangelo painted it, use this architectural leitmotif to represent Mary’s protection. This comes from a 13th Century anecdote about how Mary appeared to a Cistercian monk in a dream. In the dream, she was seen to have people protected under her mantle. Shortly after the story became popular, artists painted her cloak wider and wider they could fit more people in it. Eventually they realized they had to fit the whole world, and so they used a sky full of stars to symbolize her mantle of maternal protection.
The cover also shows a dawn with the sun just about to break the horizon. Some people might miss it, but there is a bright star on the upper left. The two images depict Mary as The Morning Star who precedes the sun, the way her coming to this earth signaled the coming of Christ.
Scholars, jokingly, like to think of the Church as a grandmother who doesn't like to throw things away; she just gathers things throughout her life. But that is what makes our Catholic customs and rites as divers as there are many cultures, but all rooted in the same apostolic Tradition.
