Chapels are namely Saxon's, Vlasim's, Canon's, Simon's and Juda's, Saint Anne and Saint Wenceslas Chapel. Accordance with existing research, we can divide the paintings at Vlasim's, Canon's, Saxon's and Saint Wenceslas Chapel into two author's ranges. The first artist created paintings in Vlasim's Chapel for archbishop Jan Očko z Vlašimi. There is the painting of St. Otylia christening on the eastern wall and painting of Dolorous Christ and St. Catherine decapitation on the western wall. The Paintings were created between 1378, when Jan Očko z Vlašimi became a cardinal and January 1380, when he died. Lower painting strip in St. Wenceslas Chapel is also attributed to this artist, but considering later overpaintigs it is uncertain. Subject of the paintings is passio Christi, completed with incrustation. Donator of those paintings was Karel IV during 1372 and 1373, after chapel consecration in 1367.
