The Master of Osma ( Spanish Maestro de Osma, Maestro de Burgo de Osma; English Master of Osma) is a late Gothic painter who worked on the Iberian Peninsula in the Kingdom of Castile from the beginning or middle of the 15th century . The artist, who is not known by name, got his emergency name from pictures he created for a Marian altar in the Cathedral of Santa María de la Asunción in El Burgo de Osma . The altar is no longer completely preserved, a handful of preserved pictures are now scattered in museums in Spain and France.

The master of Osma is close to the painting style of the Hispano-Flemish school . He was active in El Burgo de Osma at the same time as Diego de la Cruz, another painter of this style.

It has been suggested to equate the Master of Osma with the painter Jaime Mateu, but this suggestion has not been confirmed.

Equating the master of Rubielos de Mora with the master of Osma is also controversial.
