明 文徵明 行書《滿江紅》 水墨絹本 立軸
釋文：漠漠輕陰，正子梅、弄黃時節。
最惱是，欲晴還雨，乍寒又熱。
燕子梨花都過也，小樓無奈傷春別。
傍闌杆、欲語更沉吟，終難說。
一點點，楊花雪。一片片，榆錢莢。
漸日隱西垣，晚涼清絕。
池面盈盈清淺水，柳梢淡淡黃昏月。
是誰人、吹徹玉參差，情淒切。
題識：右初夏即事，調寄《滿江紅》。徵明。
鈐印：文徵明印、衡山
附泉必東（？-1765）題跋手卷：
漠漠輕陰，正午之一軸衡山文先生之真蹟也，而秦竹探翁所珍藏也，翁
大坂街中鳴於書者也。翁卒，其妻繼業，醉墨積習亦有年。一日，憣然
改曰：衛夫人尚不免譏於是乎！
謝門人止染毫，故投此一軸於伊藤古美，古美者，翁之門人也，用志於
書篤矣。余與古美有舊，故得閱之，其用筆可謂兼草行二體，而通楷隸
二法者矣。實心正之妙，宇宙間之老手也。
幸哉！古美賣此一軸也，宜家藏而傳於不朽，古美用志於書，篤於是
乎，著焉。寶曆丁丑年(1757)冬十二月，必東錢貞識。
鈐印：錢鼎之印、必東、鈍鳥棲蘆
註：泉必東，大阪書畫家，畫風師清朝花鳥畫家沈銓。據其題跋，此書
法曾屬17-18世紀大阪書法家秦竹探（1672-1730）之藏品。
