Othmar Brioschi (17 September 1854, Vienna - 8 July 1912, Rome) was a landscape painter from Austria-Hungary.

His father, Carlo Brioschi, and younger brother, Anton, were both theatre painters.

But, from 1874, he also studied at the Academy of Fine Arts with Ludwig von Löfftz, and began figure painting in 1876.

As a result, he was able to attend master classes in landscape painting with Eduard von Lichtenfels.

In 1882, he won a major award that came with a scholarship; enabling him to study in Rome for two years.
