The composition of the picture consists of nine Suzhou beauties in cheongsam, with different attitudes, some playing the zither, some playing the pipa, some playing the erhu, and some holding the fan, and behind them there are a large number of rocks and exquisite greenery forming a meaningful Suzhou garden, which is a concentrated expression of traditional Chinese culture.

The picture depicts different sizes of koi and six children riding on top of the koi, symbolizing the parents' expectation for their children to rise high in the world. The large number of koi is also meant to be a prayer for good luck. There are also a lot of auspicious clouds in the picture, which not only represent the traditional culture of auspiciousness but also the wish for the koi to soar to the sky.
The theme of Incomparable Beauties is the collision of ancient Chinese beauties and the traditional green landscape, which is expressed by combining the indirect technique of oil paintings and Chinese paintings.

The technique of depicting the distant view is based on the blue-and-green landscape painting technique of A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains by Wang Ximeng, a gifted painter from the Hanlin Academy of the Song Dynasty. The picture innovatively uses a large number of two-dimensional auspicious clouds for overall coherence. Everything in the picture is smooth, natural, and painted in one go, and the energetic dragon dancers symbolize that life is like a beautiful picture of dragons marching on the river.
