〔款識〕交河古城遺跡，烈日炎炎，黃沙漠漠，昔日城垣土堞，歷經千年霜雪風化已不見城池概況，只見尊尊如獸踞龍蟠，形奇狀異，拙厚圓渾，現代之雕塑不能以之比擬，可歎天公之弄人也。庚辰初春，紀絲路之旅，蓴波周澄畫。

[Inscription]
The ancient ruins of Jiaohe, under the scorching sun and endless yellow sands. The earthen walls of the once-great city, eroded by a thousand years of frost and wind, no longer reveal the outline of the city. What remains are forms like crouching beasts and coiled dragons—strange, majestic, rough, and rounded. Modern sculptures cannot compare to these, a testament to how nature plays with time. Painted in early spring of the year of Gengchen, commemorating a journey along the Silk Road by Chunbo, Chou Chen.
