Traditionally this art was practiced by women to beautify
their huts during religious occasions. Madhubani paintings mostly depict nature
and Hindu religious motifs, and the themes generally revolve around Hindu
deities like Krishna, Rama, Shiva, Durga, Lakshmi, Saraswati. Natural objects
like the sun, the moon and religious plants like Tulsi are also widely painted,
along with scenes from the royal court and social events like weddings.
Generally no space is left empty ; the gaps are filled by paintings of flowers,
animals, birds and even geometric designs.
