Patrick William Marony (bapt. 4 Apr 1859 – 14 Jan 1939), known professionally as P. W. Marony, was an Australian painter, political cartoonist, photographer and writer. Marony's practice as an artist and a writer spanned the period of cultural transition from the popularity of history painting to the emergence of cinematic versions of history.[1] He painted a series of bushranger-themed works which were exhibited in the mid-1890s. Marony wrote several film scripts for the Australian Life Biograph Company. Twenty-six of his oil paintings, mostly of bushrangers, are a part of the collection of the National Library of Australia.[2]
