Madhubani painting is a folk art style painting of Northern India. In their local language ‘Madhu’ means honey and ‘Ban’ means forest , Forests of honey. Madhbani painting is a very ancient art. It is mostly practiced by women in the villages who have passed this art to their daughters through multiple generations. The paintings are traditionally based on mythological, folk themes and pastoral symbols. The central themes of most paintings are love, valor, devotion and fertility, though the approach may vary.
