Otto Ludvig Sinding (December 16, 1842 – November 23, 1909) was a Norwegian painter. He went to art school in Christiania and continued his studies under Hans Gude in Karlsruhe, coming into contact with Wilhelm Ludwig Friedrich Riefstahl and Karl Theodor von Piloty.

Sinding drew on motives from Norwegian nature, folk life and history. Some of his best known works are landscape paintings from Lofoten.
