Born on October 9, 1869 in towers, georges grellet came from a family native to brine. He signed some of his compositions "geogrell" and was a member of the humorists. In 1905 he married a young artist, hortense vuischard, cousin of the painter jules-charles aviat to whom georges was related, in Boulogne (Hauts-de-Seine). During the First World War, he executed many drawings of the front. Concerning the mosaic located in the apse of the basilica our lady of brebières, it was conceived from the drawings of a homonym, alexandre grellet.
This mosaic was destroyed during the conflict and then restored. Grellet produced lithographed advertising posters as in the place clichy and cheap (1900). He designed the character of "Dr. Valda" for the pellets of the same name.
In the 1920s, he collaborated on the albums of the society of "modern print" directed by octave bernard, that is to say, many original saute-fortes in colours and stenciled illuminations, which staged elegant young women in a "boudoir" style. Grellet was also an illustrator for literary works such as the bette de balzac cousin, or the solitaire road of claude du val (1937). He died on 30 March 1959 in the 18th arrondissement of Paris.
