王寵　小楷〈遊包山集〉　水墨紙本　手卷　一五二七年作

款識：
（〈遊包山集〉，詳詩不錄）庚辰（1520）歲遊包山，有〈包山集〉，距今丁亥（1527）八年矣。追憶勝事，歷歷猶耳目間也。九月望日，偶書諸作，時在石湖禪院，王寵識。

鈐印：王寵私印、履吉之印、大雅堂
藏印：子京父印、墨林山人、黃氏懷蘐堂藏、文根審定、讀漢書樓

來源：
佳士得香港，《中國古代書畫》，2003年4月27日，拍品編號416

註：「衡山之後，書法當以王雅宜為第一。蓋其書本於大令，兼之人品高曠，故神韻超逸，迥出諸人之上。」——何良俊《四友齋書論》
「明興弘（治）正（德）而下，法書莫盛於吳，然求其能入晉人格，轍王履吉一人已矣。」——詹景鳳
王寵幼承庭訓，少負才名，弱冠得文徵明賞識，「折輩行與交」，又隨衡山從文壇盟主、大學士王鏊遊。正德五年（1510），十七歲的王寵與兄王守赴洞庭西山，於包山精舍師事林屋山人蔡羽，凡歷三年。因性惡喧囂，不樂居塵井，乃於正德辛巳（1521）於治平寺卜築石湖草堂，「讀書石湖之上二十年，非歲時省侍不數入城」。
〈包山集〉凡二十五首，收入《雅宜山人集》卷一。《石渠寶笈》卷二十一著錄有王寵書《遊包山詩》一冊，款識曰「右遊包山諸作廿五首，錄呈尊師蔡夫子斧政。庚辰九月重陽日，門生王寵具稿。」可知包山詩作於正德十五年庚辰（1520），本卷則書於嘉靖丁亥（1527），忽忽八年已過，「追憶勝事，歷歷猶耳目間也」。
考文獻著錄及傳世藏品，王履吉楷書《遊包山詩》有數本，《石渠寶笈》清宮舊藏冊頁外，周二學《一角編》乙冊亦有《遊包山詩》一冊，餘則僅上海博物館尚存一卷。
本卷乃二〇〇三年由海外市場釋出。據藏印，本卷曾經晚明收藏家項元汴、晚清收藏家章綬銜及民國收藏家黃文根先後遞藏。
章綬銜（1804-1875），浙江歸安（今湖州）人，字紫伯，別號瓜纑外史、古鄣子之苗裔，室名磨兜堅室、讀漢書樓等。貢生。工詩擅畫，精鑑，家藏書畫甚富。
黃文根乃民國時期重要收藏家，與朱汝珍友善。其懷萱堂所藏明清書畫，時見於市場，其中不乏精品佳作。
