二十四孝圖故事三則
絹本設色，鏡框
（1）山谷溺器
款識：宋時黃庭堅字山谷，元祐中為翰林學士，天性純孝而性潔成癖，至於事親則不然每日蚤起比親手為母親刷洗馬桶，豈無丫鬟使令之人一概不用，其他亦無一事不孝盡道，大約其母亦好潔耳。取以天下人皆鄭重之，不徒以文字故也。嘉慶壬戊（1802）冬日，惜華山人。

（2）文帝嘗藥
款識：文帝，漢高祖第三子，初封代王。生母薄太后，文帝十分孝敬太后，有病文帝日夜不離左右，雖有多少妃子，文帝不進内宮，衣服不脫，長夜不眠，煎熬湯藥必親口先嘗，然後敢進，爲此仁孝之名天下皆知。帝王尚且如此，百姓豈可以不孝父母乎？

（3）吳猛飽蚊
款識：晉時，吳猛年八歲，家中窮苦，床上沒有帳子，夏日夜間蚊蟲甚多，恐咬父母不得睡安寧，每到晚間必先脫衣睡在床上，任憑蚊蟲飽吃自己膏血，不肯趕去，恐蚊蟲不飽，再咬父母。此等心地豈不為孝？近霄畫。
