"God of the Mother Superior" (French: "Le Dieu des Supérieures") is a provocative etching by the Belgian artist Félicien Rops, created in the late 19th century, which reflects his characteristic blend of eroticism and satirical commentary on religion and society. Rops, who lived from 1833 to 1898, was known for his controversial works that often challenged the moral and artistic boundaries of his time.

The etching depicts a nun in an intimate embrace with a skeletal figure, representing death or perhaps a satanic presence, which is a recurring theme in Rops' art. This artwork is part of Rops' larger body of work that frequently explored and critiqued the role of the Catholic Church and its perceived hypocrisy, particularly in relation to sexuality and the repression of women.

"God of the Mother Superior" is emblematic of Rops' fascination with the macabre and the erotic, and it showcases his skillful etching technique and his ability to provoke thought and controversy through his art. The piece is often interpreted as a commentary on the conflict between human desires and the strictures of religious life, a subject that Rops returned to throughout his career.

As an artist associated with the Symbolist and Decadent movements, Rops' work is characterized by a dark, often cynical worldview, and "God of the Mother Superior" is a prime example of his exploration of the darker aspects of human nature and the institutions that seek to control it. The etching remains a subject of study for its complex interplay of themes and its bold challenge to societal norms of the era.
