About This Design

Monk Parakeet or Monk Parrot, Myiopsitta Monachus Poster

Monk Parakeet or Monk Parrot, Myiopsitta Monachus Poster

This elegant illustration depicts the Monk Parakeet, also widely known as the Monk Parrot or Quaker Parrot, a small yet highly adaptable parrot native to South America. Recognizable by its vibrant green plumage, pale gray chest, and long tapered tail, this species has become one of the most successful avian colonizers beyond its native range. Feral populations now thrive in parts of North America and Europe, thanks to their remarkable resilience and social behavior. Monk Parakeets are also unique among parrots for building large communal stick nests, often housing multiple pairs in a single structure. The artwork itself is attributed to the renowned French natural history illustrator Jacques Barraband, celebrated for his precise and lifelike depictions of exotic birds during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Titled La Perruche souris (French for “mouse parakeet”), this plate comes from his influential work on parrots, where he combined scientific observation with artistic mastery. Barraband’s attention to feather texture, coloration, and anatomical accuracy reflects the scientific rigor of early ornithological studies, making his illustrations valuable both artistically and historically. The Monk Parakeet (Myiopsitta monachus) is frequently searched for topics such as pet care, invasive species management, and urban wildlife adaptation. Known for their intelligence, vocal ability, and strong social bonds, these parrots are popular as pets but also controversial due to their impact on agriculture and infrastructure. This historic depiction of La Perruche souris provides both an educational and visual reference for anyone interested in parrot species, natural history illustration, and the legacy of Jacques Barraband.

I was so amazed at how this all turned out. Everyone who attended the funeral was in awe of how beautiful it was made. And I owe it all to Zazzle. I wouldn’t have done it better myself not to mention I wouldnt have time to do it. The great part of it all was they had templates that was catered to my needs and that I could use it in ways I wanted to use to resize it my way. It took some time but I was happy it turned out great. I did 100 photos, 89, 66 photos (I think) lol templates. The only suggestion is that the templates, before sending through would tell you of errors like; saying please revise or resize it again for any photos that is not perfectly well sitting or not show it’s cutting off some of them and where it tells you there’s duplicates. Staring, placing and resizing all 100 + pictures into the template can be tiresome and overwhelming and it makes my eyes blurred that I can’t tell if they’re cutting off or overlapping or duplicates. Overall I am very pleased and will be using Zazzle again should the need arises. Thank you Zazzle. Altogether I’ve done 3 collages 1 profile picture and couple pictures with 1 frame and yet this is my first time ordering as a 1 time customer. Prices were very reasonable and accommodating to my finances. .

Fun bright artwork that really captures the mood I’m going for! Pop art with cyberpunk energy. A little sweet but also spicy. This art is the perfect size and vibe for our art gallery wall. The printing looks great, high quality with vibrant colors! I went with the semi-gloss finish, which adds a little extra shine and thickness to the print making it excellent for high-traffic areas like the staircase wall.
