"Le Grand Oiseau De Paradis Emeraude" (The Great Emerald Bird of Paradise) is a notable illustration by the French artist Jacques Barraband (1767–1809), renowned for his lifelike depictions of birds. Barraband's work is highly regarded for its precision and vividness, which was achieved through his collaboration with the famed ornithologist François Levaillant. This particular illustration is part of a series created for Levaillant's early 19th-century ornithological monographs, which include "Histoire Naturelle des Oiseaux de Paradis et des Rolliers, suivie de celle des Toucans et des Barbus" (Natural History of the Birds of Paradise and Rollers, followed by that of the Toucans and the Barbets), published between 1801 and 1806.

The artwork showcases Barraband's mastery in rendering the exotic and vibrant plumage of the bird of paradise, a group of species found primarily in New Guinea and its surrounding islands. His technique involved detailed watercolors and engravings, which were then hand-colored by skilled colorists under his supervision, ensuring the accuracy and richness of the final prints. "Le Grand Oiseau De Paradis Emeraude" stands out as a testament to the era's fascination with natural history and the desire to document and understand the world's biodiversity.

Barraband's illustrations have been celebrated for their contribution to scientific knowledge as well as their artistic merit. They were instrumental in bringing the visual splendor of remote wildlife to the European audience of the time and continue to be appreciated for their beauty and historical significance in the realms of both art and science. The illustration "Le Grand Oiseau De Paradis Emeraude" is not only a significant piece of natural history illustration but also a fine example of the artistry that defines Jacques Barraband's enduring legacy.
