“苏州老行当”画稿表现的是20世纪各个时期苏州市面上所见的诸业行当。随着经济的发展，人们生活方式的改变，有些已经消失，只能从图中得见，而其中大部分仍是家居生活中不可或缺的。这些画作既不像“北京民间生活彩图”那样，只给人物和器具，也不同于吴友如只用墨线勾勒的画作，而是将经营各种行当的特定场景都一一表现出来，如卖白兰花的姑娘行走在幽深的小巷中，剃头摊、小吃店没在跨河的拱桥畔，油漆匠在富家花园内劳作，渔夫、菜贩摇着般儿穿行于水巷叫志，采菱女泛舟于绿荷田田的湖上……画家采用了表现江南烟雨蒙蒙景色的彩墨渲染技法，使得画中的小桥、流水、粉墙黛瓦、街巷、人物似乎都被浸得湿漉漉的，尽显水乡屡动、婉丽的情境，令人想起8世纪诗人白居易咏呤江南的词句：“江南好，风景旧曾谙。日出江花红胜火，春来江水绿

Traditional Chinese painting was fundamentally an abstract art form.Although there were no absolute abstract Chinese paintings in its original meaning, objects in a painting were not a direct copy of the nature world following the principle of perspective. It was rather a bination or harmony between the nature world and human emotion, a product of "heaven (nature) and human". The effect Chinese painters would like to illustrate in their paintings was not a visual effect of colors and patterns as their Western counterparts would like to achieve. The description of objects in their paintings was no means accurate and few concerned about such factors as colors, principle of perspective, anatomy, surface feel, and relative size. What they would like to achieve was a world in their mind of non materials. The nature world was not an object for them to make a true copy and it was rather elements for them to build their own world.
