    • 2001 December 2, Giles Milton, “'The Riddle and the Knight'”, in The New York Times[1]:
      By the time this mysterious knight died in the 1360s, his book was available in every European language, including Dutch, Gaelic, Czech, Catalan, and Walloon.
    • 2017 December 8, Scott Reyburn, “Can ‘Salvator Mundi’ Turn the Tide for Old Master Sales?”, in The New York Times[2]:
      Though, like Wright of Derby, hardly a world-famous name, Veneziano was a leading light of the later 14th-century Venetian art scene and this finely preserved, highly characterful 1360s panel, unearthed from another long-established British collection, was deemed by scholars to be an exceptional example.
    • 2021, Mark Bailey, After the Black Death[3], page 245:
      After c.1400 the scale of, and profits from, dairy farming declined greatly.69 Similarly, in the 1390s cattle rearing began to level off in many parts of the country, but continued to expand until the early fifteenth century in certain areas of northern and southern England.70 Chicken prices fell from the volatile highs of the 1350s and 1360s and remained stable throughout the 1380s and 1390s, albeit at a higher level than in the pre-plague period.71 In the 1380s demesne poultry rearing contracted and became less commercialized, perhaps due to a transfer of production to the peasant sector.72
