Felipe Pereda joined the Harvard faculty from Johns Hopkins University, where he was Professor of Art History. A scholar of late medieval and early modern Iberian art, art and image theory, and architecture, he is the author of *La arquitectura elocuente* (2000), *Images of Discord: Poetics and Politics of the Sacred Image in Fifteenth-Century Spain* (Brill, 2016), and *Crime and Illusion: The Art of Truth in the Spanish Golden Age* (Brepols-Harvey Miller, 2018). His newest book, *Torrigiano. The Man who Broke Michelangelo's Nose*, is the first biography ever written on the artist, offering a model for the study of the relationship between local artistic traditions and artistic mobility in the Renaissance.
