A newly-wed bride and her companion sit for Madhushravani, the monsoon festival unique to Mithila, worshipping the serpent deities with flowers, betel leaves, fruit, sweets and a kalash. Elder women and children gather around to bless her under a canopy of lotus garlands. A rare ritual subject, painted in rich red, pink and saffron with a lotus border.
