Poem Dedicated to Master Fozhao by Fan Chengda; Southern Song dynasty, dated 1181

Rubbing

范成大

蘇州

字致能,號石湖居士。生於一一二六年,卒於一一九三年。南宋(1127~1279)詩人、書法家。吳郡(今江蘇蘇州)人。紹興二十四年(1154)及進士第,初為著作佐郎、吏部郎中,後歷任處州知府、知靜江府兼廣南西道安撫使、四川制置使、官參知政事、進資政殿大學士。晚年居故鄉石湖。卒諡文穆,追封崇國公。近人沈曾植將范成大、陸游、朱熹、張即之譽為書法史上「南宋四家」。素有文名,尤工於詩,與陸游、楊萬里、尤袤合稱「中興四大詩人」,著有《吳船錄》、《石湖居士詩集》等。其著作《成都古寺名筆記》載有成都各佛寺壁畫作品。
 喜參佛、道,作詩講究典故、禪趣。其書法亦透禪趣,最擅行草,師法蘇軾、米芾,尤宗黃庭堅。《負暄野錄》云:「石湖上行、草,與張于湖悉習寶晉,而各自變體。雖未盡合古,自有一種神氣,亦足嘉尚。」《書史會要》讚曰:「石湖以能書稱,宗黃庭堅、米芾,遒勁可觀。」淳熙八年(1181)遊阿育王山,作四首七言絕句贈佛照禪師,後刻為《贈佛照禪師詩碑》。
 此碑書風成熟,故其字兼有蘇軾厚實的字體、黃庭堅舒展的架構及米芾多變的筆勢,其豪氣淋漓的書風,足可令人一暢胸臆。傳世作品有行書《中流一壺帖》,藏北京故宮博物院;另有《西塞漁社圖卷跋》等。
