"Red-cheeked Parrot by Jacques Barraband" is a notable illustration created by the French artist Jacques Barraband (1767–1809), who was renowned for his life-like depictions of birds. The artwork is part of a series that Barraband produced for François Levaillant's early 19th-century ornithological works, which include "Histoire Naturelle des Perroquets" (Natural History of Parrots) published between 1801 and 1805. This particular illustration showcases the Red-cheeked Parrot (Geoffroyus geoffroyi), a species native to the forests of New Guinea and surrounding islands.

Barraband's work is highly regarded for its precision and vibrant use of color, which was achieved through the labor-intensive technique of engraving, hand-coloring, and printing. His collaboration with Levaillant yielded some of the most accurate and beautiful ornithological illustrations of the time, contributing significantly to the scientific and artistic record of avian life. The "Red-cheeked Parrot" stands as a testament to Barraband's skill in capturing the delicate features and vivid hues of his subjects, making it an important piece in the history of natural history illustration.

The original illustrations by Barraband have become valuable collector's items and are held in high esteem by both art connoisseurs and ornithologists. They are often featured in exhibitions and art collections that focus on natural history and the development of ornithological art. The "Red-cheeked Parrot" not only reflects Barraband's artistic prowess but also serves as a historical document, providing insight into the scientific knowledge and aesthetic sensibilities of the early 19th century.
