Jonas Helmer Osslund (originally his last name was Åslund) (1866 – 1938) was a Swedish painter. He was born and died in Sweden, but managed to travel a lot. He lived in the United States, and trained as an engineer. On a business trip to Paris, he decided to stay and learn painting.

He specialised in landscape paintings, most of them depicting Lapland. However, he did manage to make one painting of Le Havre.
