"The Astor Library" is an oil painting by American artist Colin Campbell Cooper. Dating from the early 20th century, it showcases the Astor Library in New York City, which was one the primary public libraries in the city until it merged with the Lenox Library and the Tilden Foundation in 1895 to form The New York Public Library. Renowned for his architectural paintings, Cooper often captured notable buildings of the era, and this painting is no exception. It offers a uniquely historical view of an important New York City institution.

In "The Astor," Cooper uses his characteristic impressionistic style to depict the majestic facade with soft contrasts between light and shadow, applying color in broad, gestural brushstrokes. The Astor Library is portrayed as an enduring beacon of knowledge and culture amidst the bustling urban environment, encapsulating the library's role as a place of learning and intellectual growth. This painting is not only a testament to Cooper's skills as a painter, but also an artistic document of architectural and cultural history.
