Goddess Durga in Madhubani Style

This intricate artwork is a traditional Madhubani painting depicting Goddess Durga, a revered deity in Hindu mythology, known for vanquishing evil and restoring dharma. Created using the distinct Madhubani art technique, the painting showcases the goddess with multiple arms holding symbolic items, including a trident and conch. She is seated on a lion, her vahana (vehicle), symbolizing courage and strength.

Executed primarily in black and red ink, the artwork features fine line work, geometric patterns, and symbolic motifs such as lotus flowers and sacred circles. The attention to detail and use of symmetry reflect the cultural richness of Bihar’s Mithila region, where this folk art originates. This framed piece is both a spiritual representation and a celebration of Indian folk artistry.
