Augustine Philippon, born Simonet in 1862 and died in 1926,

was a painter specializing in portraits, miniatures and Orientalism.

She studied with artists Charles Donzel and Henri Louis Levasseur.

From 1880, she began exhibiting at the Paris Salon under her maiden name. In 1884, she became a member of the Salon des Artistes Français.

His works are distinguished by classic portraits, demonstrating an innate sense of detail and refined technique.
His orientalist landscapes are characterized by warm colors and inspire travel.
Our soldier looking at the sea, offers all the characteristics of his art.
The work represents a soldier, nicknamed "piou piou", a term designating young soldiers since 1838, the year of publication of the popular comedy "Le piou piou ou la glory de l'amour".

The soldier wears a kepi with madder red headdress, a bluish iron gray cloth overcoat, in use since the Second Empire, as well as red pants.
