Multiple Fish Mandala Madhubani Painting on Handmade Paper

This striking Madhubani painting presents a 'Multiple Fish Mandala', a powerful symbol of abundance, fertility, and prosperity in Mithila culture. The fish, rendered with characteristic almond eyes and intricate scales, are arranged in a dynamic circular composition, embodying cyclicality and harmony. True to the Madhubani tradition, the space is densely filled with geometric patterns and linear detailing, leaving no area untouched, creating a vibrant visual tapestry.

Crafted by artist Archana Jha Ghaziabad, this work is executed in natural colours on handmade paper. Madhubani, or Mithila art, hails from Bihar, where women traditionally adorned freshly plastered mud walls and floors for ceremonies. From the 1960s, this intricate art form transitioned to paper, preserving its distinct language of double-line borders, stylised motifs of nature, and techniques like bharni, with its bold colour fills, or kachni, known for its fine line work and cross-hatching.

This exquisite piece is a one of a kind original, not a mass-produced print. It will be delivered with a signed Certificate of Authenticity, guaranteeing its provenance and originality. We are pleased to offer complimentary insured delivery across India for this unique artwork.
