There are several "Pancaratna" manuscripts in the collection of the
Wellcome Institute for the History of Medicine, and several contain
miniature paintings of the Gajendramoksana episode to accompany the text.

See _A Handlist of the Sanskrit and Prakrit Manuscripts in the Collections
ofthe Wellcome Institute for the History of Medicine_ vols. 1 (1985) and 2
(1998).  Available from t.tillotson at wellcome.ac.uk


All the best,
