| American Artist |
| Cooper was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He was greatly influenced by Monet and the Impressionist style. Encouraged by his parents, Cooper studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. In 1886, Cooper ventured on the first of a lifetime of travels to Europe. There he discovered an unending fascination with architecture and studied at the French Art Academies of Julian, Delocalize and Vita. America was as challenging to paint for Cooper as any exotic country. In fact, he received his most critical acclaim for his American cityscapes and the new, purely American skyscraper. |
