In 1473 Agostino returned to Perugia as architect in charge of the design and execution of the Porta San Pietro, left unfinished at the time of his death. Among his other contemporary commissions, from small towns in Umbria and Lazio, are two Archangels for Acquapendente Cathedral (Viterbo) and two wall tombs, both originally in San Francesco, Amelia (Terni), those of Giovanni Geraldini, Bishop of Catanzaro (1476; Amelia Cathedral) and of Matteo and Elisabetta Geraldini (1477; in situ).
