"The Third Avenue El" is a painting by Paul Cornoyer (1864–1923), an American painter known for his impressionistic urban scenes. The work depicts the Third Avenue Elevated Railway in New York City, a subject emblematic of the rapid urbanization and industrialization taking place at the turn of the 20th century. Cornoyer's painting captures a moment in the daily life of the city, with the El, as it was commonly known, towering above the bustling street scene below.

As an artist, Paul Cornoyer was drawn to the atmospheric effects of weather and the interplay of light within the urban landscape, often focusing on rainy cityscapes that imbued his work with a sense of mood and emotion. "The Third Avenue El" is characteristic of his style, which combined the influence of the French Impressionists with a distinctly American subject matter. The painting is notable for its use of perspective, the rendering of the elevated railway's intricate metalwork, and the depiction of the city's inhabitants going about their daily lives amidst the shadows and light cast by the El.

Cornoyer's work provides a historical snapshot of New York City during a period of transformation, offering insight into the urban experience of the era. "The Third Avenue El" not only reflects the artist's technical skill and aesthetic sensibilities but also serves as a valuable document of the city's architectural and social history. The painting is held in high regard for its artistic merit and as a piece of cultural heritage that captures the essence of New York City at the dawn of the 20th century.
