Vasily Vasilyevich Mate or Mathé (Russian: Василий Васильевич Матэ; 6 March [O.S. 23 February] 1856 – 22 April [O.S. 9 April] 1917) was a Russian etcher and wood engraver of German descent. In contrast to other Russian artisans of the era which prioritized poetry, he was a skilled engraver and was one of the major engravers in Russia during the late 19th century. He collaborated with major Russian painters and produced engravings of their paintings, thus helping popularize Russian art.
