Answer:
The battle of Yavin is the start of the calendar in the Star Wars universe. All events are given dates BBY/ABY (Before and After the Battle of Yavin). The Gregorian and Julian calendars use the Birth of Christ as the start of the calendar.

1 is the Battle of Yavin (aka Battle of the Death Star)
2 is the nativity of Jesus. They both form form the year 0 for counting years in their respective universes. Years are counted wrt Battle of Yavin as ABY (After Battle of Yavin) and BBY (Before Battle of Yavin) and in our universe birth of Christ is used to counting the years, BC and AD.

battle of yavin , the painting is “nativity” . The event depicted is birth of Jesus Christ.Battle of yavin started a whole new era , as in the years after the battle was called ABY and years before was called BBY , just like BC and AD ? (am not really sure about the connect part :( ..)

1st pic is the battle of endor. Endor is a biblical place, the 2nd pic depicts a biblical scene most likely the birth of Jesus.

The Battle of Yavin and Caravaggio’s Nativity with Saints Francis and Lawrence.
The only connection I can think of is the use of the above events as a marker for time - i.e. BC vs. AD (birth of Christ being the event) and BBY vs. ABY using the Battle of Yavin.

Nice well-framed question!
Battle of Yavin (1) is used as a temporal reference point in the Star Wars universe just like the Birth of Jesus (2) is in the real world.
