Details

Italian sculptor and architect. He is first documented in 1310 in Siena, when he married Lagina di Nese, who was possibly a sister of the sculptor Cellino di Nese of Pistoia. Their two sons Giovanni d'Agostino and Domenico both became sculptors and master builders, but Agostino seems to have been the most significant artist in the family. His masterwork is the Tomb of Bishop Guido Tarlati in the Duomo at Arezzo. It was signed in 1330 by him and Agnolo di Ventura. He was probably more active as architect than sculptor, and no other important sculpture is attributed to him. The tomb of Cino de' Sinibaldi in the Duomo at Pistoia is probably came from his workshop. //
