Colorful and precise depictions of birds, each perched on a branch and rendered against a white ground by Pauline Decourcelles, one of the few prominent female 19th century bird artists. Manakins and Euphonias are species of small tropical birds found in Central and South America.
Desmarest published several other natural history books.
