While continuing the tradition and aesthetics of Indian art, his paintings employed the latest European art techniques of his time.
Secondly, he was notable for making affordable lithographs of his paintings available to the general public, which greatly enhanced his reach and influence as a painter and a great public figure.
Indeed, his lithographs increased the involvement of common people with fine arts that lasted for several decades. Particularly, his depictions of Hindu Gods and Goddesses and episodes from the Ithihasas and Puranas have received profound recognition from the public, and are found, often as objects of worship, across the length and breadth of India, especially his paintings of ‘Hindu Goddess of wealth Lakshmi’, and ‘Goddess of knowledge and learning Saraswathi’.

Ravi Varma was patronised by Ayilyam Thirunal, the Maharajah of Travancore and began formal training thereafter, learning the basics of painting initially in Madurai, and later water-painting under Rama Swami Naidu, and oil-painting under the Dutch portraitist Theodor Jenson.
Ravi Varma received widespread acclaim after he won an International Award for an exhibition of his paintings at Vienna in 1873. Varma’s paintings were also sent to the World’s Columbian Exposition held in Chicago in 1893, and he was awarded three gold medals. Many of his fabulous paintings are preserved at Laxmi Vilas Palace at Vadodara today.
