Yesterday in the text from Wikipedia it was mentioned  that Martin Lewis  helped Edward Hopper learn the basics of etching.
So here is an etching by Hopper.
 
Edward Hopper
(1882- 1967)
 
Edward Hopper was an American realist painter and printmaker. While he is widely known for his oil paintings, he was equally proficient as a watercolorist and printmaker in etching. Hopper created subdued drama out of commonplace subjects 'layered with a poetic meaning', inviting narrative interpretations. He was praised for "complete verity" in the America he portrayed. His career benefited decisively from his marriage to fellow-artist Josephine Nivison, who contributed much to his work, both as a life-model and as a creative partner.
