Philippe de Valois, also known as Philip VI, was the 49th king of France from 1321 to 1328. He succeeded Charles IV and ruled until his death in 1350, making him the 50th king of France. This coloured engraving portrays Philippe de Valois during his reign, showcasing his regal presence and authority. In another coloured engraving, we see Queen Jeanne de Bourgogne, wife of Philippe de Valois. Her elegance and grace complement the king's stature, creating a powerful royal couple that symbolizes strength and unity. A chromolitho image captures Philippe de Valois' likeness with intricate details. The vibrant colors bring life to this depiction of the king, highlighting his importance in French history. An artwork from around 1350 shows a group of donor figures including a king, queen, and prince. Among them is likely Philippe de Valois himself. This piece reflects the significance of royalty during that era and their role as patrons of art. The English passing through Somme in 1346 is depicted in an intriguing painting from 1890 by an unknown artist. It illustrates one aspect of Philip VI's reign - conflicts with England during the Hundred Years' War. Tragedy strikes in another artwork titled "Tragical Death of Jacob Van Ardevelt" by Charles Grignion in 1773. Although not directly related to Philippe de Valois himself, it serves as a reminder that turbulent times often accompanied medieval rulers like him. The Battle of Sluys is captured twice: once by James William Edmund Doyle in an undated artwork and again by him on June 24th, 1864. These depictions showcase significant military events during Philip VI's reign when he faced off against England's forces at sea. Various portraits throughout history immortalize King Philip VI's appearance; two examples are artworks created by J Chapman - one from 1805 and another from 1801.
