註：陳巨來著〈安持人物瑣憶〉有關吳湖帆一篇，直筆書寫兩人「相交數十年，中間雖與之有數度嫌隙……感情如恒」， 讀之如見二人之性略乖傲與才情相惜，故趙叔孺言「二人至好，物以類聚」。
吳湖帆長陳巨來近十歲，相識於陳氏師門趙叔孺家，當日即以明汪關印存相借，陳逾七年始歸還，自言「余生平治印，白文工穩一路全從此出」。吳湖帆所藏名畫法書，陳巨來皆得一一細讀，吳常以畫事心得與之交流，令其鑒賞眼界遠高同儕，故對吳湖帆始終心存感激尊敬，本聯中以「吾師」稱之，亦是〈安持人物瑣憶〉那段文字外的另一種記錄。
陳巨來極少作書，趙叔孺贊其篆書得「醇雅」二字，本聯集李陽冰〈謙卦碑〉，筆如蠶絲，勻淨明快，無書家習氣，盡得雅靜秀潤，真有睹玉之感，殊為難得。
