Adolphe-Léon Willette (Châlons-sur-Marne, 1857 - Parigi, 1926) was a French painter, illustrator, cartoonist and lithographer. Unique position among the graphic humorists of France. Willette ran as an anti-Semitic candidate in the 19th arrondissement of Paris for the 1889 election.
Willette often proves pungent and fierce, even heinous, in his odes, being a violent though at the same time a generous partisan of political ideas, furiously compassionate with love and pitiful for people if they are stuck under the spur of political oppression, or are simply victims of unrequited love.
