The Coronation of Inês de Castro in 1361 is a c. 1849 oil on canvas history painting by the French artist Pierre-Charles Comte, first exhibited at the Paris Salon of 1849 (his second-ever work exhibited at a Salon) and now in the Museum of Fine Arts of Lyon, which it entered in 1885.

Other painters of the time had also painted works on the life of Inês de Castro - count Auguste de Forbin in 1812 (he also exhibited an autograph copy at the 1819 Salon), Gillot Saint-Evre in 1827, Eugénie Servières's Inês de Castro throwing herself and her children at the feet of Alfonso IV of Portugal to free don Pedro, her husband (exhibited at the 1824 Salon) and Inês de Castro Before Her Murder (1839).
