In this Madhubani painting, Goddess Durga is given a local thrust by the painters of Madhuban, Bihar. Handmade paper treated with cow dung is used by the local painters who are mainly males. The Goddess is standing on a lion. Colour patterns are exquisitely used. Madhubani is a popular hand-made painting in the Mithila region of Bihar where women draw paintings of nature, or mythological figures on handmade papers or cloths. Natural colours are delicately used on cotton. This genre of painting is marked by line drawings filled in by bright colours and contrasts or patterns. Though traditionally done by the women of the region, nowadays men are also involved in the process of painting. These are basically tribal art which are marked by the application of strong earthly colours. Madhubani paintings are done with mineral pigments prepared by the artists. The work is done on freshly plastered or a mud wall. But nowadays, to cater to the growing commercial demand, such paintings are also done on paper, cloth and canvas as well.
