按《中国美术家人名辞典》，收入沈燧条，写作“沈燧”，传世沈氏所作《群仙图》等亦作“燧”。而近年所出《海上画派全集》收入沈氏所作《人物四屏》，其款印均作“沈璲”。考所据诸作品均不伪，则可知“沈燧“、“沈璲”系同一人，两说俱通。
沈燧画作远法改琦（七芗）、华嵒（玉壶外史），近师潘振镛。前人评改琦画作云“笔姿秀逸”，评华嵒画作云“笔意纵逸跌宕，粉碎虚空，……机趣天然”，评潘振镛作云“风姿绰约，修洁雅淡”。种种风貌，在沈燧的画作中都隐约可寻端倪。故此作署“拟玉壶外史（华嵒）画法”，绝非虚言。
沈燧所作《桃源问津图》绘陶渊明《桃花源记》故事图，图中渔人登舟入桃源，源里之人见而异之，扶老将雏立而问答之情景跃然纸上，画面用笔飘逸灵动，反复点染不致厚腻，设色古雅清淡，人物造型生动中富古拙之意，观赏之令人有目不暇接、处处生趣之乐，洵为佳作。此作款记“己巳小春”之作，则当是1929年，沈燧三十九岁所作。沈燧四十二岁壮年即卒，若假以天年，必当更有大成。
