這幀「飛魚」圖與圖版93的「飛魚」圖反映畫稿與接近完成的畫蹟間的密
切關係。圖版93的「飛魚」圖僅以白描線條勾勒不同泳游的飛魚體態，而
此幀已以水墨設色渲畫飛魚游於波浪之中。飛魚姿態和前圖的構圖非常相
近，當以前者寫生稿為畫本而描畫這幀雖然未加題款，但已發展成熟，章
法完整的畫作。此兩圖為其在1930年代初期乘船赴印度期間，得見飛魚騰
躍波濤之間，偶有跳上船隻甲板，並烹而食之的經歷的畫作。
This piece “Flying Fish” is very similar to Exhibit 93, showing the close
association between a sketch and a painting close to completion. In
Exhibit 93, a variety of forms and motions of the flying fish are
illustrated with plain lines. The fish in this piece are swimming or
leaping across the waves, shown with modulated ink and colour tones
and splashes. The postures are nearly exactly the same as the sketch in
Exhibit 93, showing that this work is completed from the sketch and is
fully mature, though without Gao’s signature. This work records his
experience when he travelled to India by sea in the 1930, he saw flying
fish leaping and swimming amidst the waves. Some even dropped on
the deck of the boat, so he picked them up for cooking and eating.
