Madhubani art photo frames
Madhubani, or Mithila, painting comes from Bihar and is known for its fine line work, bold natural dyes and patterns that fill every inch. These 15 frames reproduce designs in that style, and each tells a story.
What the paintings show
- Nature and symbols: a pair of peacocks with their tails spread among lotuses; a tree of life with birds, deer and elephants at its roots; a bamboo grove of colourful birds; a turtle ringed with peacock feathers, a sign of good fortune and long life; a lotus mandala; and a decorated elephant under a parasol.
- Celebration: a bride and groom under a canopy of peacocks, and a wedding scene with two large fish above, a traditional symbol in Mithila weddings.
- Village life: women drawing water from a well among thatched huts, birds and a rising sun.
- The cosmos: the sun, moon and planets of the solar system drawn in dense pattern.
- Deities in the Madhubani style: Radha and Krishna, Ganesha, Durga and Ardhanarishvara, which are popular for a mandir or an entrance.
They brighten a living room or study and are a good gift for someone who loves Indian craft. For other folk and decorative styles, see boho art and God photo frames, or the whole wall art photo frames range.
