Calligraphy: Returning Home, a poem by Tao Yuanming (365-427), transcribed, signed and dated by Xie Yuanfu, renyin year (1902）: 乃瞻衡宇，載欣載奔。僮僕歡迎，稚子候門。三徑就荒，松菊猶存。攜幼入室，有酒盈罇。引壺觴以自酌，眄庭柯以怡顏。倚南窗以寄傲，審容膝之易安。園日涉以成趣，門雖設而常關。策扶老以流憩，時矯首而遐觀。雲無心以出岫，鳥倦飛而知還。景翳翳以將入，撫孤松而盤桓。 歸去來兮，請息交以絕遊。世與我而相違，復駕言兮焉求？悅親戚之情話，樂琴書以消憂。農人告余以春及，將有事於西疇。或命巾車，或棹孤舟。既窈窕以尋壑，亦崎嶇而經丘。木欣欣以向榮，泉涓涓而始流。善萬物之得時，感吾生之行休。伯池仁兄大人正之，子受謝元福.
Painting: inscribed, signed and dated by Wang Shijian, jisi year (1929) at age of 66: 益卿仁兄所藏翁伯池遺扇， 背頁尚未著墨， 屬余補白，寫右承雪景以應之。 時已已冬日， 距吾友謝君元福寫此扇時相去已卅餘年矣。 光陰如電可慨也。 *弟王士堅畵六十有六。
