Madhubani Painting of a Lion

Item Details

A Madhubani painting of a lion. This work uses washes of orange and light red over a careful pen drawing of a lion-like beast, its head turned upwards in a dramatic roar. The animal is surrounded by a graphic assortment of flowers and leaves. This piece is mounted under glass in a molded black frame with a wire for hanging.
