吳歷　春邨圖　設色紙本　手卷黃安世、顧文彬、吳湖帆題跋
款識：吳歷擬古。
題跋：（一）春村圖。余嘗讀書之暇，流覽畫譜，恆怪劉褒，畫雲漢而熱，畫北風而寒。以爲炎涼之榷，摻之造化，畫雖工，焉能運神工於筆底乎？己卯（）季冬，於葑溪舘次，偶閱漁山〈春邨圖〉，第見輕雲澹蕩，芳草青葱，弱柳垂金，晴波泛碧，春林藏耕織之家，旭日照江皋之艇，筆緻珊珊，韶光盈褚，披圖之頃，祇覺惠風生座，栗烈渾忘，悠然身臨春甸，足履青郊，步芳菲而遊茅店，不自知其何謂也，因流連不忍釋。噫！憶昔少年時，閱蘭亭、竹樓、赤壁諸篇，神怡心曠，寵辱咸忘，蓋謂文章一道，抒天地之秘，山川之秀，故能若是。孰謂丹青小技，感人性情，一至此哉！因嘆河嶽之靈，不獨萃之於文；造物之機，有時洩於畫。是故滕王之蝶，翩翩欲舞；吳僧之蟲，趯趯欲動，而僧繇之龍，直可破壁；道子之驢，竟欲踐人也。由此觀之，則褒之畫，豈妄也哉。然則漁山之春邨，殆得畫工於毫端者矣！宜吾友友山兄珍藏而玩賞也，不揣蒭蕘，漫錄巴人之語於圖左，並附俚言四韻，以博大方之一笑云耳。數椽茅屋繞垂楊，村婦鳴杼線載陽。漁父網魚春浪暖，牧童驅犢野花芳。差池紫燕隴頭語，上下...
