It wasn't until a while after I had watched this video that I realized something about quite a few of Cooper's cityscapes. With most painters, their city scenes are painted from a street level point of view. Cooper often executes his from an elevated point of view, as if he's standing on a balcony about 5-10 floors up or from a studio window at that level. If you look carefully at the perspective lines, you'll see what I mean. He's looking down and outward at the city scene before him.
