About the piece

This evocative oil painting by Paul Cornoyer depicts a late afternoon in Madison Square around 1910. The composition features the iconic tower of the original Madison Square Garden rising through a screen of bare trees, while figures and carriages navigate the park's edge in a soft, tonalist light that captures the mood of the city at dusk.
