介绍（中）	王敖，苏州人，是当时最著名的文学人物之一。他在朝廷的事业也很成功，晋升为大秘书和皇帝的初级导师王在其宫廷生涯的巅峰时期创作了这幅卷轴，作为送给同为官员的吴晏（1457-1519）的告别礼物。吴受皇帝委托，为其叔父徐溥（1428–1499）担任名誉护卫，当时徐从大秘书处退休。在这首诗之后，王加了一张纸条描述了这一事件，并在纸条上签上了他所有的宫廷头衔，从而将一份私人礼物变成了对吴作为皇帝使者的荣誉角色的有力公开证明为了配合这种正式的表现形式，王用戏剧性的大字书写文本，最大限度地展示了他独特的棱角分明的笔法和锋利而坚定的动作。近年来，这幅卷轴是艺术家兼收藏家王的珍贵财产。王也来自苏州，他的家族血统可以追溯到王敖。
介绍（英）	Wang Ao, a native of Suzhou, was one of the most famous literary figures of his day. He also enjoyed a successful career at the court, rising to the position of grand secretary and junior tutor to the emperor. Wang created this scroll at the height of his court career as a farewell present for fellow official Wu Yan (1457–1519). Wu had been deputized by the emperor to serve as an honorary escort to his uncle Xu Pu (1428–1499), when Xu retired from the Grand Secretariat. Following the poem, Wang added a note describing this event and signed the piece with all his court titles, thus transforming a private gift into a powerful public testimonial of Wu's honorary role as the emperor's emissary. As befits this kind of formal presentation piece, Wang wrote his text in dramatic large-scale characters that show off to maximum advantage his distinctive style of lean angular brushwork with its sharp firm movements. In recent years, the scroll was a treasured possession of the artist and collector C. C. Wang, who also comes from Suzhou and traces his family lineage to Wang Ao.
