Karl Pavlovich Bryullov

Death of Ines de Castro, Morganatic Wife of Portuguese Infant Don Pedro  , Karl Pavlovich Bryullov

1841

Inês de Castro (1325 – 7 January 1355) was a Galician noblewoman born of a Portuguese mother. She is best known as lover and posthumously-recognized wife of King Peter I of Portugal. The dramatic circumstances of her relationship with Peter I, which was forbidden by his father King Afonso IV, her murder at the orders of Afonso, Peter's bloody revenge on her killers, and the legend of the coronation of her exhumed corpse by Peter, have made Inês de Castro a frequent subject of art, music, and drama through the ages.
