Looks similar to the rib vault in Reims Cathedral...

Wild guess. Vatican vault.

If true.. Italy succumbed (in guilt) to The Artist of the Deal, who exchanged and collected the derps & perps $350,000,000,000.00, to keep their government intact, following the Leonardo Steal.

Old news, I know. Never mind the source.

"Does anyone recognize the ceiling, btw, in case that’s imporant?" At some level I suppose that one gothic vault looks like another. Vatican ceiling is, however, a barrel vault. National Cathedral picture. Artist could be referring to the funeral in the National cathedral and the notes that were passed out?

Looks like a cathedral ceiling, plus the doorways/alcoves. Very Gothic style architecture used in old and maybe newer Cathedrals.
