上款：「伯寅」即潘祖蔭（1830-1890），蘇州人。咸豐二年（1852）以探花及第授編修，屢獲升擢，歷任工、刑、禮、兵、戶五部尚書，加太子太保銜，獲朝廷倚重。又嗜收藏，舉凡金石、碑版、書畫、鼎彝，富甲江南，乃晚清重要收藏家。

註：潘吳兩家乃吳中大族，兼具通家之誼。潘祖蔭科名較早，居官京師時，並為文壇所重。故吳大澂入京應試時，執晚輩禮，且同嗜金石書畫之好，常有過從，關係密切，事之如師，本幅曰「夫子大人命繪」，實出此故。

咸同年間，潘祖蔭領導京師文壇，其城南米市胡同宅內之「藤陰書屋」，乃文人學者結聚之所，考研金石，欣賞書畫，校勘典籍，一時文風受其影響。本幅寫於同治十年（1871），題跋者皆雅集於「藤陰書屋」之參與者，此亦潘氏精勘彝器銘文，整理〈攀古樓彝器款〉之時，故此畫亦紀其事。

從張之洞、錫縝題跋內容，〈藤陰書屋勘書圖〉當有另本，繪者為雅集常客之秦炳文，兩跋皆為秦畫而作。該幅或佚失，後藏者遂將其跋移裱於本幅，蓋兩畫題材如一，先後同為潘氏而製，足見當時他在文壇之地位。
