In addition to the beauty and simplicity of the paintings itself, Madhubani art, often referred to as Mithila art, is a traditional Indian art style. It uses indigenous plants for colours, cow dung to treat the paper, and bamboo sticks as brushes.
With its depictions of religious, romantic, and fertile themes, the art not only represents the social structure but also the cultural character of the region. The most renowned paintings in the world are those of Madhubani.
