Tomb of Cino da Pistoia

In his monument to Cino, Agostino shows himself more completely at his ease in the small decorative figures than in the monumental statues, and still more so in the bas-relief panel. The scene of the poet enthroned among the scholars offers him the opportunity for delightful descriptive notes that suggest similar effects of miniature painting, or the work of minor Sienese artists after the Lorenzetti.
