Anna-stiina Antola, counselor for agriculture, food, and veterinary affairs at the embassy of Finland, said: "I love the opening part of the show very much, which has segments from the painting by Wang Ximeng vividly displayed onstage, such as the moving mountains. In one scene, the female dancers showed solid skills, especially when they did a dramatic back bend, which was very impressive."
Shan Jixiang, former director of the Palace Museum in Beijing, who retired in 2019, said that he was glad that the painting could be enjoyed by contemporary audience through dance drama, which "is a great way for ancient Chinese masterpieces to connect and communicate with people living in the contemporary world".
