Otto Friedrich Gussmann (22 May 1869, Wachbach, Main-Tauber-Kreis – 27 July 1926, Dresden) was a German decorative artist, designer, and art professor. His father was a pastor. After completing secondary school, he began an apprenticeship with a decorative painter in Stuttgart. He also took classes at the Kunstgewerbeschule (now the State Academy of Fine Arts). In 1892, he moved to the teaching institute at the Kunstgewerbemuseum Berlin. Four years later, he began studying at the Berlin Academy of Fine Arts. After completing his studies, he established his reputation with paintings and decorations for the new Reichstag, designed by Paul Wallot. In 1897, Wallot invited him to Dresden to become a teacher at the Academy of Fine Arts. The master school for decorative painting was opened under his direction in 1910. He would be named a Professor in 1915 and, four years later, he became Director of Studies; holding that position until his death.
