http://www.nethaat.com/blog/?p=556
Madhubani paintings are an essential aspect of Indian folk culture. This ancient art form has a rich heritage and significance in the artistic domain of Indian culture. It is also called Mithila Paintings. These paintings hail from the Madhubani village, located in Bihar, and depict scenes from the Ramayana. Traditionally, this art form was practiced by the women folk as an artistic outlet. The Madhubani paintings adorned the walls of homes, in the hopes of pleasing the Gods they believed visited every morning. It was usually painted on mud walls of huts but later branched out to canvas, cloth and hand made paper.
