Chromolithographic print titled Panchadeva featuring Shiva enthroned with Parvati and Ganesha on his lap at the centre and his vahana Nandi below. To their left are a four-armed Vishnu and Vaishnavi, while to their right are a two-armed Vishnu and Ganesha. Both Vishnu and Ganesha appear twice in this work. The more graphic style seen in this print was more typical of later Ravi Varma Press productions from around the 1920s and 1930s.
