He has presented papers at meetings of the Renaissance Society of America, the Sixteenth Century Studies and Conference, and the South-Central Renaissance Conference, and has authored essays in such venues as Studies in Iconography, the Sixteenth Century Journal, and Source: Notes in the History of Art; recent publications include “Clarissa Strozzi: Titian's Portrait of the Bride as Young Girl," in The Early Modern Child in Art and History (2015); “The Politics of Representation: Paolo Veronese, Benedetto da Mantova, the Wedding at Cana for S. Giorgio Maggiore,” Iconocrazia 10 (2016); and “Force Constrained: Hercules in Sixteenth-Century Venice,” Iconocrazia 13 (2018). “Open Secrets: Allah's Presence in Mantegna's S. Zeno Altarpiece,” is forthcoming in Iconocrazia (2020).
