吊橋應該是所有橋梁之中最富詩意的，它除了輕便、廉價之外，也因為搭建快速而可省卻許多人力、物力，而且對大自然破壞也最小，和大自然最容易相融相處。比諸柏油路、水泥橋，山水畫裡配上吊橋，就不顯得那麼剛硬難融了。

本圖，左邊安排一座城市（有高樓大廈），左右兩岸靠一座吊橋來交通。橋下溪水潺潺，遠處再安排一道流瀑，奔瀉而來，是繁忙的都市郊外最幽靜的所在。

這畫的墨彩、色彩我們都做多層次的渲染，因此看起來厚重而不單薄。

Suspension Bridge （吊橋）

Suspension bridges have the most poetic beauty of all bridges. Apart from being light and inexpensive, suspension bridges are easy to construct and don't require a lot of manpower or resources. They also do the least damage to nature, and blend in best with the natural environment. Compared with asphalt roads and cement bridges, suspension bridges go best in landscape paintings because they are not so hard and harsh.
The left side of this painting consists of a cityscape (with skyscrapers and high-rise buildings), and transportation to the right and left banks is provided by a suspension bridge. The river below the bridge flows steadily by, and there is a rushing waterfall in the distance. It is a magnificently serene spot in the suburbs of the city.
The colors are applied lightly in the layers in this painting, which lends it the appearance of substance, so that it doesn't look insubstantial.＠
