She was paid by the province of Artois and Flander, and named in its honour, according to the practice of the time. The Artésien took part in the American revolutionary war under Suffren, departing in 1781. Off Cape Verde, Artésien detected an English squadron, resulting in the Battle of Porto Praya. Artésien was decommissioned in 1785 and used as a shear hulk. A fine 1/28th scale model was used to instruct Louis XVI in naval studies. The model is now on display at the Musée de la Marine.
