(

楚文昭王
马希范(899年-947年),字宝规,五代十国时期南楚国君主,是楚王马殷的四子,马希声之弟,与马希声同年同月同日生。
后唐明宗长兴三年(932年)马希声去世,因之前马殷去世时遗命兄终弟及,因此群臣迎接时任镇南节度使的
马希范继位。后唐则任命
马希范为武安、武平节度使,兼中书令。后唐明宗清泰元年(934年),
马希范被封为楚王。之后又被封为天策上将军。
马希范好学,很会做诗,然而非常奢侈,尤其其妻彭夫人去世后,
马希范更是纵情声色,饮宴无度。
马希范兴建的天策府,门户槛杆都用金玉装饰,连涂抹墙壁的丹砂也用了数十万斤,常与子弟及部属在内游玩宴会。原本楚地多产金银,而贩卖茶叶的利润更多,因此十分富庶,但是在无节制的挥霍下,只好向人民加税,又卖官鬻爵,规定捐钱可赎罪刑,人民因之困苦不堪。
后汉高祖天福十二年(947年),
马希范去世,谥文昭王,弟马希广继立。
