Colin Campbell Cooper, Jr. (March 8, 1856 – November 6, 1937) was an American Impressionist painter, perhaps most renowned for his architectural paintings, especially of skyscrapers in New York City, Philadelphia, and Chicago. An avid traveler, he was also known for his paintings of European and Asian landmarks, as well as natural landscapes, portraits, florals, and interiors. In addition to being a painter, he was also a teacher and writer. His first wife, Emma Lampert Cooper, was also a highly regarded painter.
==Background and education==
Colin Campbell Cooper, Jr. was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on March 8, 1856 into a well-to-do family of English-Irish heritage.〔 He had four older and four younger siblings. His mother, Emily Williams Cooper, whose ancestor emigrated to the U.S. from Weymouth, England,〔 was an amateur painter in watercolors.〔 His father, Dr. Colin Campbell Cooper, whose grandfather came from Derry, Ireland,〔 was a surgeon〔 and a lawyer with a great appreciation for the arts. Young Colin had been inspired by the art which he discovered when he attended the Philadelphia Exposition of 1876. Both of his parents were highly supportive of his ambitions, encouraging him to become an artist.〔
In 1879, Cooper enrolled in the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in Philadelphia, studying art under famed controversial realist painter Thomas Eakins〔 for three years.〔 In 1886 he embarked on the first of his many travels to foreign lands, visiting the Netherlands, Belgium, and Brittany.〔 Afterwards, his art education resumed at the Académie Julian in Paris from 1886 to 1890,〔 with Henri Lucien Doucet,〔 William-Adolphe Bouguereau, and Jules Joseph Lefebvre.〔 He also studied at Académie Delécluse and Académie Vitti. His work of this period consisted mostly of landscapes painted in a Barbizon manner.〔 He traveled extensively throughout his life, sketching and painting scenes of Europe, Asia, and the United States in watercolors and oils.〔
