Pieter Perret or Peter Perret (Spanish: Pedro Perret c. 1555–1625) was a Flemish engraver. After training in Antwerp and Rome, he worked in Madrid in the service of Philip II of Spain. He introduced into Spain the Flemish printmaking tradition and the new artistic style that was developing among Northern artists under the influence of contemporary Italian art. He is credited with renewing Spanish printmaking. He was known for his large-scale architectural prints, frontispieces, portraits and reproductions of contemporary artworks.
