He would do the incredibly attractive illustrations in Jane Loudon's Ladies' Flower Garden Series 1839-1848. The present title was first published in 1841 but several editions followed. Humphreys would also publish a similar work on Moths in 1845 and a second work on moths and butterflies in 1859.

‎A Record of the Black Prince.; Being a selection of such passages in is life as have been most quaintly and strikingly narrated by chronicles of the period embellished with highly wrought miniatures and borderings selected from various illuminated MSS. referring to events connected with English history‎

‎The Miracles of Our Lord‎

‎London: Longman & Co 1848. First edition. Hardcover. Very good. 8vo. iv1312pp. Thirty-two pages are chromolithographed by Humphreys in addition there is a leaf of the illuminator' s remarks and one comprising an index of the miracles. Bound in the original black papier-mache covers designed to look like carved ebony. The binding was based on one carved in ivory in the 12th Century and has medallions of the principal miracles intertwined with ornate decorations and the title. The front and rear covers are identical. The book is exuberantly illustrated using chromolithography on 32 pages alternating between hot bright colors and cool pages subtly tinted with various shades the whole combining to make both a magnificent tribute to Medieval illustration and to the then new and novel technique of chromolithography. Marbled endpapers all edges gilt. Nicely rebacked in plain black leather;; a few small cracks in the binding edges and corners neatly mended but a very good copy.
