Hmm I dunno, take a look at any bird-of-paradise or male peacock and tell me that the dinosaur's descents aren't beautiful.
The reality is we have a very loose idea of what dinosaurs really looked like, because what remains of them is so many millions of years old that it's decayed completely, or if we're exceptionally lucky - been fossilized. Feathers, skin, colours, fluorescences, bio-luminescence - 99.9999% lost to time, and could have been very beautiful.
