Georg Gottfried Julius Dehio, was a Baltic German art historian.
In 1900, Dehio started the "Handbuch der deutschen Kunstgeschichte", published by Ernst Wasmuth. The project is ongoing and managed by the 'Dehio-Vereinigung', Munich.
He is the namesake of the Georg Dehio Prize.
He was laureate of the Pour le Mérite order, the Eagle Shield of the German Empire and the Bavarian Maximilian Order for Science and Art. He held honorary doctor titles in Göttingen, Tübingen, Frankfurt and Darmstadt. The minor planet 48415 Dehio discovered circa 1987, is named after him.
