His illustrations were featured in several important publications, including François Levaillant's "Histoire Naturelle des Oiseaux de Paradis et des Rolliers," which documented various exotic bird species. Barraband's ability to capture the intricate details of the birds' plumage, along with their natural postures and habitats, set a high standard for natural history illustration.
