This painting, when framed with a 0.75in black wood frame & 2in colour mat, has dimension of 12x12inches approximately.
In this exquisite Madhubani artwork, two fish swim in perfect harmony, their forms interlocking to create a balanced, symmetrical composition. The black and red hues dominate the visual field, with intricate patterns of crosshatching and geometric shapes filling the bodies of the fish. The fish's bold eyes, rendered with the characteristic large, almond-shaped design, anchor the piece and draw the viewer’s gaze.
Fish in Madhubani art symbolise fertility, prosperity, and abundance, and the pairing of these two creates a sense of union and balance. The circular motion of the fish suggests the cyclical nature of life, while the surrounding polka dots add a playful and dynamic energy. This artwork not only celebrates the traditional Madhubani technique but also presents the timeless themes of balance, unity, and continuity.Try it!
