Mithila painting (otherwise called Madhubani painting) is polished in the Mithila condition of Nepal and in the Bihar condition of India.

The Mithila district, from which the name Mithila craftsmanship is determined, is accepted to have been the kingdom of King Janak in present-day Janakpur in Nepal.The definite time when Mithila workmanship began is not known.[citation needed], The cause can be followed to the season of the Ramayana, when King Janaka of Nepal requested his kingdom to beautify the town for the wedding of his girl, Sita, to Lord Rama. The old custom of detailed divider canvases or Bhitti-Chitra in Nepal and Bihar assumed a noteworthy part in the development of this new artistic expression. The first motivation for Madhubani craftsmanship rose up out of ladies' longing for religiousness and a serious yearning to be unified with God. With the conviction that canvas something perfect would accomplish that longing, ladies started to paint pictures of divine beings and goddesses with an elucidation so divine that caught the hearts of numerous.
Madhubani, which by one record implies Forest of Honey, ('Madhu'- nectar, 'Boycott'- backwoods or woods) is a locale in Mithila district of Nepal and the northern piece of Bihar. A district that has an unmistakable local personality and dialect that purportedly traverses 2500 years.
The ladies painters of Mithila lived in a shut society.

The commitment of outside researchers in advancing the work of art universally has likewise been colossal. Yves Vequad, a French author and writer, in the mid 1970s composed a book on the premise of his examination on Mithila painting and delivered a film 'The Women Painters of Mithila'.
