徐渭（1521-1593）字文长，号天池，晚号青藤道人，浙江山阴人。嘉靖三十七年（一五五八）曾入闽督胡宗宪幕府，又曾因行迹狂异入狱。晚年著书鬻画为生。山水、人物、花虫、竹石，无不精擅，尝自评：吾书第一，诗二，文三，画四。

徐渭·《画竹》

东吴药绢白濛濛，况值胶矾盏内空。

烂颖扫来孤凤影，江湘细雨淡烟中。

Painting Bamboo

Hsu Wei

Cheap silk

from Eastern Wu

dull and damp,

and too the pot

is bare

of sizing

but when my brush

sweeps through

the shadow

of a solitary phoenix

here's silken rain

on the Hsiang Chiang River

and pale mists.

（James Cryer 译）
