Not least because of this monumental work, Temminck (1778-1858), who directed the National Museum of Natural History at Leiden, is regarded as one of the foremost ornithologists of his time. This work is notable for its monumentality and numerous fine hand-coloured illustrations, yet collations for it vary because of its complex and irregular publishing history.
