Description

This exquisite Madhubani piece is a prime example of the demanding Kachni style, where the art relies almost entirely on fine, precise black line-work to create texture and form. The massive Tree of Life (symbolizing longevity and growth) and its foliage are meticulously filled with hatching, while the background remains white, emphasizing the artist’s technique. Small figures of birds are rendered in solid, bright colors (a touch of the Bharni style), providing sharp, delightful accents against the monochromatic detail. This artwork is a testament to the skill and patience of the Mithila artist.

Predominantly Kachni Style. Defined by extensive fine line work, hatching, and minimal color use, focusing on intricate detail and texture
