From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Canterbury Cathedral by Thomas Mann Baynes

Thomas Mann Baynes (1794–1876) was an English artist and lithographer.[1] He is known for his drawings and watercolours of landscapes, buildings and outdoor events.

He was London born, and is probably the son of James Baynes, a noted watercolour artist.[1] He produced views of Liverpool and Ireland, and appears to have made a successful living as a printer.
