石渠寶笈續編﹝御書房﹞,第四冊,頁2024&*故宮書畫錄﹝卷五﹞,第三冊,頁504&*故宮書畫圖錄,第十冊,頁9-10&*王時翼(活動於十七世紀後半),字又溟,江蘇太蒼人。王時敏族弟。善畫山水人物,山水師承李唐,雄渾蒼古,人物取法宋旭、崔子忠,遒勁多姿。 范仲淹名作〈岳陽樓記〉有一段形容風雨之景,云:「陰風怒號,濁浪排空,日星隱耀,山岳潛形,商旅不行,牆傾楫摧。」此圖以生動巧妙的手法,重現了文字所描述的景象,令觀者有如身歷其境。 &* Wang Shih-i was the cousin of the famed painter Wang Shih-min. He excelled at painting landscapes and figures. His landscapes follow in the grand and archaic brushwork of Li T’ang, while his figures paintings resemble the taut, animated features of Sung Hsü and Ts’ui Tzu-chung. In a passage from “The Record of the Yüeh-yang Pavilion,” written by Fan Chung-yen, a dark scene of wind-driven rain is described as whipping up waves and obstructing the passage of merchant ships. Wang Shih-i has very skillfully illustrated this scene, successfully capturing the gloomy, stormy scene as suggested in Fan’s passage.
