Charlotte Buell Coman (1833 – November 11, 1924) was an American painter.

She was born in Waterville, New York in 1833. She lived and worked in New York City. She died in Yonkers, New York in 1924. Coman did not take up painting until she was in her mid 40s. Coman studied in New York with James Renwick Brevoort and in Paris with Harry Thompson and Émile Louis Vernier. "She was influenced by the French Barbizon painters and her popular works were compared to those of Corot".

She was a member of the National Association of Women Painters and Sculptors. A portrait of her by Helen Watson Phelps is in the collection of the National Academy of Design.
