Description
Mithila - 1975. Musée des Arts Décoratifs, Paris. Printed by Arte, Paris. 71x44cm. Original poster, lithograph. Not canvas-backed. Condition A. Perfect condition. Original poster produced for the "Mithila" exhibition at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris in 1975. The exhibition was devoted to the art of Mithila (or Madhubani), a traditional form of painting originating in northern India, mainly produced by women and characterised by very dense decorative motifs, narrative scenes and a strong symbolic dimension linked to Hindu traditions. Printed by the Arte studio in Paris, this poster is set against the backdrop of the major ethnographic and art exhibitions held in Paris in the 1970s, a period marked by the growing interest of museum institutions in non-Western art and popular traditions.
