His practice of always clearly signing and dating his plates rakes his development as an engraver easy to follow. His early works show the influence of Giulio Campagnola (ab. 1482-aft. 1514). After his move to Rome, he did engravings after Raphael and Giulio Romano. During the Sack of Rome (1527), Agostino sought refuge in Florence, but later returned to Rome where toward the end of his life he engraved a number of portraits of popes, kings, and others. frame: ~20" x 16.5"visible image: ~9.5" x 7" A345
