Jeannette Maxfield Lewis began experimenting with printmaking under Armin Hansen in 1931, first with small drypoints, later moving into etching. She and her husband soon began a collaborative effort in the production of her prints; under the initial supervision of Hansen, Mr. Lewis became Jeannette's printer and chief critic. Working on-site continued to be an integral part of creating the etching or drypoint and Lewis' reputation in this medium grew rapidly.
