It also makes a great gift for the art lover or a loved one interested in storytelling tradition.

Madhubani art (or Mithila Painting) is a beautiful traditional art form practiced in the Mithila region of Bihar and can be traced back as far as the 7th century. This art is hand-painted by Maithili women of Nepal and has been passed from generation to generation since.

Initially, the womenfolk of the village drew the paintings on the walls of their home with fingers, twigs, brushes, and matchsticks as an illustration of their thoughts, hopes, and dreams. With the change in time and tradition, the paintings started becoming a part of festivities and special events, like marriage.

These are priceless collectibles.
