大家都知道鲁迅小时候很喜欢绘画，曾经买过各种画谱来学习绘画，而鲁迅买的第一部画谱，就是一本日本画家画的十八描——《海仙画谱》，周作人在《百草园(二五):漫画与画谱》(1951年7月25日《亦报》)这篇回忆散文中有详细的记述：
还有一回是正月里(1894年)，小孩们得到了一点压岁钱，想要买点什么玩意儿，其实每人所得至多不过二三百文大钱，也并没有东西可以买得。这一回除别的零碎东西外还买了一册“海仙画谱”，后来知道是日本刻本，内容是海仙十八描法，画了些罗汉，衣纹，有什么枣核描、鼠尾描、钉头描等名称，倒也颇有意思。“朝花夕拾”中讲“二十四孝”的地方，说有一本是日本小田海仙所画，也就是这个人，他的画大概是稍为有点特别的。
小田海仙(1785-1863)是日本江户幕府末期的画家，通称良平，名赢，字巨海，号海仙、百谷、南丰。他所常用的印章就有“王赢“、“巨海”、“王赢之印”等。
Everyone knows that Lu Xun liked painting very much when he was a child. He bought a variety of painting manuals to learn painting. The first painting manual that Lu Xun bought was a book of eighteen paintings by Japanese painters, “The Painting Manual of Sea Immortals”. Zhou Zuoren wrote a detailed account in his reminiscent prose “Hundred Grass Garden (the Second Five Year Plan): Cartoons and Painting Manual” (Yibao, July 25, 1951):
Another time was in the first month (1894) when children got some lucky money and wanted to buy something. In fact, each person got no more than 200 or 300 wen, and there was nothing to buy. In addition to other odds and ends, this time I bought a copy of “Haixian Painting Manual”. Later, I learned that it was a Japanese woodcut, with the content of eighteen descriptions of sea immortals. I drew some arhats, clothing patterns, and names such as date pit description, mouse tail description, nail head description, which were quite interesting. In the place where “Twenty four Filial Piety” is mentioned in “Morning Flowers and Evening Gathering”, it is said that one of the books was painted by Japanese Hisense Oda, that is, this person. His painting is probably a little special.
Hayashi Oda (1785-1863) was a painter at the end of the Edo Shogunate in Japan. He was generally known as Liang Ping, Ying, and Ju Hai. His common seals include “Wang Ying”, “Juhai”, “Wang Ying’s Seal”, etc.
