“邓恩在教学中更关注作品的本质精神，而非技术步骤。他从不教学生用什么画笔或颜料，他只关心作品的最终效果是否与人类生活的激情相契合。”——迪恩·康威尔，《插画大师》

插画家兼画家哈维·邓恩深受霍华德·派尔及其学校教学的影响。派尔在布兰迪万艺术学院的学生后来成为二十世纪一些最重要、最受尊敬的艺术家，包括N.C.怀斯、弗兰克·舒诺弗、维奥莱特·奥克利和杰西·威尔科克斯·史密斯。他们都曾跟随邓恩学习，其中许多人后来也走上了教学之路。邓恩继承了派尔的教学方法，并继续影响着下一代艺术家。

1934年的一个晚上，邓恩在中央艺术学院授课时，一位名叫泰勒的旁听者记录下了他的评语和批评。这些笔记后来被收录在一本精装限量版书中。书中配有邓恩引人注目的木刻插图，生动地再现了他课堂上的氛围。 《课堂之夜》 是邓恩评论作品保存最完好的记录，这本精美的硬皮书将为艺术家、教师、学生和艺术史学家提供指导和启发。

"Dunn, in his teaching, was more concerned with the essential spirit of work than with technical procedures. He never taught what kind of brushes or what kind of paint to use. It was merely whether the result had anything in common with the excitement of human existence." — Dean Cornwell, "the Dean of Illustrators"

Illustrator and painter Harvey Dunn was deeply influenced by Howard Pyle and the teaching he received while at his school. Pyle's Brandywine students became some of the most important and well-regarded artists of the twentieth century, including N. C. Wyeth, Frank Schoonover, Violet Oakley, and Jessie Willcox Smith. All studied alongside Dunn, and many of them would go on to teach. Dunn embraced Pyle's approach as an instructor and went on to influence the next generation of artists.

During the course of an evening in 1934, while Dunn was teaching at Grand Central School of the Arts, one Miss Taylor, a witness to the class, recorded his comments and criticisms. These notes later surfaced in a slim, limited-edition volume. Enhanced by Dunn's striking woodcut images, the book provides a flavorful re-creation of the atmosphere in his classroom. An Evening in the Classroom is the best-preserved record of Dunn's critiques, and this handsome hardcover book will instruct and inspire artists, teachers and students, and art historians.
