故宮書畫錄(卷七),第四冊,頁2-3&*淳祐元年(1241)理宗(1205-1264)至太學,作〈道統十三贊〉,後命馬麟(約1180-1256後)繪成圖像,藉以彰顯其道統與政統合一的政治理念。惟今僅存其中的五幅,合稱「道統五像」。其中〈伏羲像〉署有馬麟款,餘四幅則無,但五像風格接近,且上方均有宋理宗親筆題贊,明顯同出一人所繪。本幅中禹的形象,姿貌偉岸,行筆雄健挺勁,致讓帝王端嚴的意態,儼然躍乎楮素,誠為馬麟巨幅立軸中的悉力偉構。(20101015)&* In 1241, Emperor Lizong (r. 1205-1264) went to the National University and composed the “Thirteen Eulogies on Confucian Orthodoxy.” Afterwards, he ordered Ma Lin to do paintings for them, manifesting the traditional Confucian lineage and the court’s ideal of unity with political orthodoxy. Unfortunately, only five of the paintings survive, which is why they are also called “The Five Portraits of Confucian Orthodoxy.” Among them, the portrait of Fuxi bears the signature of Ma Lin. The other four are unsigned, but the style of them all is similar. Furthermore, the five have eulogies personally inscribed by Emperor Lizong at the top, clearly indicating that they were done by the same person. In this image Yu appears regal and stalwart, the brushwork likewise robust and forceful. Bringing out the figure’s impressive bearing, as if appearing before our eyes, it truly makes this a great work among the hanging scrolls by Ma Lin.(20101015)&*1.劉芳如,〈夏禹王立像〉,收入何傳馨主編,《文藝紹興:南宋藝術與文化•書畫卷》(臺北:國立故宮博物院,2010年十月初版一刷),頁347。
