Philip of Artois (1358 – 16 June 1397), sometimes Philip I, son of John of Artois, Count of Eu, and Isabeau of Melun,[1] was Count of Eu from 1387 until his death, succeeding his brother Robert.
Philip was a gallant and energetic soldier. In 1383, he captured the town of Bourbourg from the English. He went on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land and was imprisoned there by Barquq, the Sultan of Egypt, being released through the mediation of Jean Boucicaut and the Venetians.[2] In 1390, he joined the unsuccessful expedition of Louis II, Duke of Bourbon, against Mahdia.[3] In 1393, Philip was created Constable of France.[4]
As a prominent crusader, Philip was one of the French contingent sent to take part in the Battle of Nicopolis. He was captured in the battle and subsequently died in captivity.[1]
