1391 Canonization of St Birgitta of Sweden, Document written by Cardinal Adam Easton, O.S.B., of Norwich
1394 Priests and Brothers from Vadstena arrive to instruct male postulants who had already gathered. But the idea of having recently consecrated Swedish virgins go to Italy to open a nuns' convent in Florence was not regarded as practicable. Another solution was found: Superior of the St. Clare Convent of S. Maria di Targia at Cortona, Marta dei Casali, accepted the office of first Abbess of the new monastery, so her name could be written into the deed of the first great donation made by the Albertis in December
1395March Marta dei Casali formally appointed abbess of Florence's Brigittine monastery, the Paradiso, by Pope Boniface. Chiara Gambacorta elected Prioress of San Domenico of Pisa. 13 November Lapo Mazzei writes to Francesco Datini, Merchant of Prato, about St Birgitta of Sweden

1423Bartolomeo Fruosini (1366-1441), a follower of Lorenzo Monaco, illuminated the Annunciation for the hospital of Santa Maria Nuova in Florence, now in the Bargello Museum, Cod. F72, fol. 14v. In the illumination Bartolomeo Fruosini shows a limited space in bifocal perspective - that is, the floor is seen from above, whereas the ceiling is seen from below. The figures float and undulate sinuously, still a late Gothic characteristic. This Annunciation is datable 1423 because the Chorale Cod. F72 was bound in that year and the Annunciation is copied from an Annunciation by Lorenzo Monaco in the church of Santa Trinità in Florence, which in turn was influenced by the Strozzi Pala by Gentile da Fabriano, now in the Uffizi Museum, which is dated March 1423.
