鄭午昌 蜀江帆影
鄧散木 行書

款識：
〈畫〉
憶十年前在過廬為藹士先生寫蜀江帆影圖。同學志摩詩人在旁，曰：用筆如此未免草率，我亦善為之。左厂李大起謂之曰：是即所謂筆簡意遠，確難得乎。君果善為，願試之何如？出箑面五六，志摩亦興然受之而去。越半月，志摩袖箑面來寓所曰：視之甚易，為之實難。易五六箑總覺得無一筆是處。余笑曰：果知君不及我也。蓋我嘗好為泰哥爾詩，呻吟累帋，求一語若君，且不可得。君天才，自絕人，然未常作畫，而能一舉及我，寧有此理耶？相與大笑，茲寫是景，偶憶及之並記。即似銘嘉先生博笑。甲申鄭午昌時客海墨鴛鴦樓。

〈書〉
（錄元好問詩一首，文略）書似銘嘉先生正之。糞翁。

註：鄭午昌筆下以構圖險峻，佈局出人意表勝。畫中千巖萬壑，奇峰迭出，令觀者目不暇及。本幅一反其慣性，化繁為簡，務虛為主，寥寥數筆點劃峰頂岩塊外，餘下山體輪廓、天際彩霞，以至江畔波光，皆以淡彩反複薄染，用色亦不出青赭，袛見滿紙烟嵐飄盪，水氣濔漫，茫茫中隱約可見帆張結伴沿江而過，正蜀江帆影之景也。

畫家在長跋中詳述如此創作之緣由，涉及與詩人徐志摩、書畫家李祖韓之交往，字裡行間點出在詩文、書畫上各有所長，流露了惺惺相惜之情，亦為上世紀三十年代滬上文壇風貌添補一筆。跋中稱徐志摩為「同學」，蓋鄭、徐清室鼎革前就讀於杭州府中中學，故具同窗之誼。
