On a summer afternoon in July, a large house with twin gables stands on High Street in Botley, England.

Framed by lush trees and garden shrubbery, the home is fronted by a gravel path and a bank of dry grass, reflecting the mid-summer season.
The Royal Oratory is a late Gothic gallery in St. Vitus Cathedral, built around 1490 for King Władysław Jagiellończyk to attend liturgy with his court. It connects the royal residence to the cathedral through a porch that still exists today, despite later reconstruction. Architecturally, it draws inspiration from Peter Parler's style and features a tripartite vault and a suspended keystone. The richly decorated balustrade includes twisting Gothic motifs, small figurines, and coats of arms representing the king’s territories. The oratory is attributed to the architect Benedikt Ried.
