"Dieu Wotan" (1897) is an artwork by Henri Jules Ferdinand Bellery-Desfontaines, a French illustrator and decorator known for his contributions to the Art Nouveau movement. The piece is a visual representation of the Germanic god Wotan (also known as Odin in Norse mythology), who was associated with wisdom, war, battle, and death, as well as poetry, magic, and the hunt.

Bellery-Desfontaines' depiction of Wotan is emblematic of the late 19th-century fascination with mythological and medieval themes, which were often revisited through the lens of Art Nouveau's stylistic elements. The work is characterized by its intricate line work and stylized forms, both hallmarks of the Art Nouveau aesthetic. "Dieu Wotan" showcases the artist's skill in blending historical and mythical subject matter with contemporary design sensibilities, creating a piece that is both evocative of the past and reflective of the artistic innovations of its time.

The artwork serves as an example of the period's cultural revivalism and the way in which artists like Bellery-Desfontaines sought to reinterpret ancient legends and iconography within the context of modern art movements. "Dieu Wotan" is not only significant for its artistic merit but also as a cultural artifact that provides insight into the era's intellectual and artistic preoccupations. The piece is part of Bellery-Desfontaines' broader oeuvre, which includes graphic design, furniture design, and interior decoration, all of which contributed to the development of Art Nouveau in France and beyond.
