Three line engraved plates by J. LeKeux. RAURI McLEAN, Victorian Book Design, p. 84 notes: "Divers Works in not entirely a chromolithograph book, but it is an interesting and ambitious production with some fine pages. In Volume I, the letterpress text is illustrated with copperplate engravings and etchings printed among the type, always a noble form of extravagance, as well as with wood engravings, the twelve chromolithographs (including some magnificent very large folding ones) were printed at 9 Argyll Place under the superintendence of Owen Jones."
