Thomas Mann Baynes (1794–1876) was a London born English artist known for his drawings and watercolours of landscapes, buildings and outdoor events. Many of his subjects were engraved and published, generally in London, and these include a notable panorama of the River Thames, which was drawn from nature and engraved on stone. He was the son of James Baynes, a noted watercolour artist.
Baynes also produced views of Liverpool and Ireland, and appears to have made a successful living as a printer prior to his death in 1854. His son Fredrick Thomas Baynes (1824–1874) was also a noted watercolour artist.
Thomas Mann Baynes' works include:
- Views on the River Thames in London
- View of the Canterbury and Whitstable Railway From Over the Tunnel, Taken on the Opening Day, May 3, 1830
- The Giant's Causeway
Many of Baynes' drawings were engraved and published as prints.
