Original Raja Ravi Varma Embellished Saraswati Oleograph

Own a piece of Indian heritage with this original Raja Ravi Varma oleograph print of Goddess Saraswati, circa 1905–1925. This rare hand-colored chromolithograph was produced by the iconic Ravi Varma Press — a revolutionary art house that made Indian mythology accessible to the masses through fine printing. The artwork features Goddess Saraswati, the Hindu deity of wisdom and the arts, seated gracefully with a veena and a majestic peacock at her feet. What sets this piece apart is the authentic hand embellishment — delicately sewn floral accents and sequins, a signature of early 20th-century Ravi Varma Press works. The print is housed in its original wooden frame, showing signs of age that add to its vintage charm. Whether you’re a collector of Indian art, a lover of mythology, or seeking a sacred piece for your home, this vintage Saraswati oleograph is both an artwork and a relic of India’s artistic legacy.
