AGOSTINO

This article appears in Volume V01, Page 381 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: ADA-AIZ
AGOSTINO and AGNOLO (or ANGELO) DA SIENA, Italian architects and sculptors in the first half of the 14th
century
 . Della Valle and other commentators deny that they were
brothers
 . They certainly studied together under Giovanni Pisano, and in 1317 were jointly appointed architects of their native town, for which they designed the
Porto
 
Romana
 , the
church
  and convent of St Francis, and other buildings. On the recommendation of the celebrated Giotto, who styled them the best sculptors of the time, they executed in 1330 the tomb of
Bishop
  Guido Tarlati in the
cathedral
  of Arezzo, which Giotto had designed. It was esteemed one of the finest artistic works of the 14th
century
 , but unfortunately was destroyed by the French under the duke of Anjou.
