明代中期以后,吴门画家中表现怀念送别题材的作品颇多。苏州城西的阊门是当时送别友人的地点,这一有着特定意义的建筑也随之在送别图以及其它实景山水画中反复出现。《阊门舟阻图》描绘的不是送别的场景,而是张宏游玩虎丘之后返棹阊关时亲眼所见的热闹场面。除此以外,故宫博物院还收藏了2幅描绘阊门的作品。陆治的《濠上送别图》轴描绘阊门以及苏州城墙的远景和整体,袁尚统的《晓关舟挤图》轴描写群舟争渡的阊门城楼和门洞局部。3件作品从不同角度真实生动地描绘出当时苏州水城繁荣兴旺的场面。

The title of this painting is: "The Mid-Autumn Festival of Ding Hai, with Jiang's flower-making studio, friends travel to Tiger Hill, return to Yanguan, the boat is blocked. Occasionally there are instant noodles. Make this picture to remember their interest. Ha-ha. Zhang Hong was seventy-one years old." Xiajun "Zhanghong" and "Jundushi" are printed on two sides.
After the mid-Ming Dynasty, many Wumen painters expressed their nostalgia for farewell works. Yanmen in the west of Suzhou City was the place of seeing off friends at that time. This building with special significance also appeared repeatedly in farewell pictures and other real landscape paintings. "Yanmen Boat Block Picture" depicts not the scene of farewell, but the lively scene that Zhang Hong witnessed when he returned to Yanguan after playing in Tiger Hill. In addition, the Palace Museum also has two paintings depicting Yanmen. Lu Zhi's "Haoshang Farewell Map" axis depicts the vision and the whole of Yanmen and the city wall of Suzhou. Yuan Shangtong's "Xiaoguan Zhouquan Picture" axis describes the part of Yanmen Tower and Gate Cave where boats compete. The three works vividly depict the prosperity and prosperity of Suzhou Shuicheng from different perspectives.
