Georges Philibert Charles Maroniez (17 January 1865 in Douai – 11 December 1933 in Paris) was a French painter, specializing in landscapes with figures.

While attending law school, he also took courses at the École des Beaux-Arts of Douai and became a student of Pierre Billet [fr] in Cantin.

[3] He travelled widely throughout the Mediterranean, North Africa and the Middle East, using his device to take over 1,600 images that are in the collection of the museum in Cambrai.

Later he devised and patented a method of suppressing the vibrations and jerky movements produced by the cinematographs of the Lumière Brothers,[4] which had its unveiling in 1899 at the Société Photographique in Cambrai.

[5] During the German occupation of north-east France, his studio was looted, and his wife was deported, with hundreds of other French civilian hostages, to Holzminden internment camp in Lower Saxony.
