Because it is blue?

Lots of things on this page are filled in with blue, but nobody seems to be suggesting that they are the sky.

Because it is full of stars?

A blue surface, full of stars, suspended above ground-level and parallel to the ground.

We see the same * shapes in the top left rosette, the bottom left rosette, the bottom centre rosette and the top centre rosette; do you think they also represent stars? In the top centre rosette and the bottom centre rosette we have areas filled in with blue; does that also represent the sky? Of course, I could be said to be biased as I interpret that central area as being a crown, look at the rim of the area to see what I mean. I interpret the * as an artistic detail with no specific meaning and I interpret the blue as like the way other parts of the page are coloured in to make the page more visually appealing.
