AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The work exhibits the characteristics of Madhubani (or Mithila) painting: characterized by vivid colors, intricate designs, and the use of fine, detailed lines, often depicting rural life, divine animals, and the Tree of Life.
The painting combines various elements of Indian wildlife, including an elephant, deer, birds, and a feline (perhaps a leopard), together with a prominent "Tree of Life" that unites sky and earth.
Cultural Significance: These artistic styles are often performed by women from tribal communities and narrate stories of deities, nature, and daily life, with a deep symbolic and spiritual meaning.
Measurements: 99 cm x 38 cm
