The spectacular tree is nicely painted on cotton cloth using traditional Madhubani style. The spectacular Madhubani painting celebrates the glory of nature with some some brilliant lines and colour patterns. Natural dyes are used on cotton that gives rise to an extraordinary effect. Tree is symbolised as life. As a tree grows, similarly growth is the basic tenet of life. It also shows that people in Mithila are very much dependent on nature for their survival. Madhubani painting, also known as Mithila Art as this genre is centred around Mithila region of Bihar, is marked by line drawings filled in by bright colours and contrasts or patterns. Though traditionally done by the women folk of the region, nowadays men are also involved in the process.
