Philip of Artois (November 1269 11 September 1298) was the son of Robert II of Artois, Count of Artois, and Amicie de Courtenay.[1] He was the Lord of Conches, Nonancourt, and Domfront.

He married Blanche of Brittany,[2] daughter of John II, Duke of Brittany,[3] and had the following children:

He served under his father at the Battle of Furnes, where he was wounded.[5] He never recovered, and died of the effects over a year later.[5] He was buried in the now-demolished church of the Couvent des Jacobins in Paris. His premature death led to a legal battle later, when the County of Artois was left to his elder sister Mahaut of Artois rather than his eldest son Robert III.
