《泛太湖图》轴，明，文伯仁绘，纸本，设色，纵60.5cm，横41.6cm。

　　本幅款署：“隆庆己巳春从胥口泛太湖因写此图。五峰文伯仁。”下钤“五峰山人”印。

　　此图作于明隆庆三年（1569年），文氏68岁时。画面描写从胥口泛舟太湖所见的景色，构图采用了中国古代绘画“三远法”中的“平远法”。中国画家追求为山水传神并直抒胸臆，即使以实际的山川为题时，也不拘泥于视觉上的机械描写。此幅画中“平远”的构图真实自然，着重表现辽阔的水面，与文氏常用的重叠塞实的布局有所不同，突显了太湖的浩渺。此种构图方式极好地突出了主题，展现出清旷幽远的意境。设色淡雅，为文派绘画的典型风貌。在笔墨表现方面，画家以文徵明的细笔画为基底，上追王蒙，山石用干笔勾勒、皴染，细劲缜密，有很强的个人风格特征，属文伯仁上乘之作。

The composition adopts the "Ping Yuan" method in the "Three Far Ways" of ancient Chinese painting. Chinese painters pursue to convey the spirit of mountains and rivers and express their minds directly.
