介绍（中）	作为神童，王志登六岁就能画大字书法，十岁就能作诗。他最出名的是他为手卷制作的不朽文书或篆章字体卷首，他用更非正式的草书写了这封信给朋友。在信中，王说他已经满足了朋友的要求，要一根卷轴来增强某卷轴的吸引力，此外，还送给他六条鲤鱼的礼物，帮助他从病中恢复过来。王健林对朋友的感情，体现在他自己生病的雪天，在严寒中写下这封信。汪曾祺一生大部分时间都在苏州度过，他遵循了温正明（1470-1559）的书法风格，温正明是两代前苏州艺术界有影响力的领袖。王的人物身材高大，略微捏。他的笔触缺乏模特的力度和大胆的节奏手势，但他的笔触仍然以其优雅的轻松和自然的技巧给观众留下了深刻的印象，这在各个笔触的柔和波动中显而易见。除了写作的速度和随意性外，王的病也可以解释其执行中的某些草率。
介绍（英）	A child prodigy, Wang Zhideng could do large character calligraphy at the age of six and compose poetry at ten. Best known for his monumental clerical or seal-script frontispieces for handscrolls, he wrote this letter to a friend in the more informal running-cursive script. In the letter, Wang relates that he has fulfilled the friend's request for a colophon to enhance the appeal of a certain scroll and, in addition, was presenting him with a gift of six carp to help him recover from illness. Wang's affection for his friend is underscored by the fact that he wrote this letter in the freezing cold on a snowy day when he was ill himself. Wang, who spent most of his life in Suzhou, here follows the calligraphic style of Wen Zhengming (1470–1559), the influential leader of Suzhou's artistic circle of two generations earlier. Wang's characters are tall and slightly pinched. Lacking the strength and bold rhythmic gestures of his model, his brushwork nonetheless impresses the viewer with its graceful ease and natural finesse as evident in the gentle fluctuations of the individual strokes. In addition to the speed and casualness of the writing, Wang's illness may also explain certain cursoriness in its execution.
