Influenced by the traditional classical sculptures of ancient India the cosmic couple Vishnu and Lakshmi has been painted in a most artistic manner.Use of browns and ochers in this painting reminds us about classical statuary of medieval and ancient India.
This cosmic dance of Shiva is called 'Anandatandava,' meaning the Dance of Bliss, and symbolizes the cosmic cycles of creation and destruction, as well as the daily rhythm of birth and death. The dance is a pictorial allegory of the five principle manifestations of eternal energy — creation, destruction, preservation, salvation, and illusion. According to Coomerswamy, the dance of Shiva also represents his five activities: 'Shrishti' (creation, evolution); 'Sthiti' (preservation, support); 'Samhara' (destruction, evolution); 'Tirobhava' (illusion); and 'Anugraha' (release, emancipation, grace). The overall temper of the image is paradoxical, uniting the inner tranquillity, and outside activity of Shiva.

The beautiful image of Lord Shiva in his Nataraj form is given a vivid depiction in the Patachitra painting. Lord Shiva, one of the Trinity, the other two being Lord Vishnu and Brahma, is believed to be the master of all mudras of dance and the dancing posture of Nataraj symbolises the rhythmic motion of life. The painting is full of life and enthusiasm. His four hands are in a dancing posture as Parvati is looking at Him.
