Life edit
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.

- 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

Many of his subjects were engraved and published, generally in London. A notable panorama of the River Thames was drawn from nature and engraved on stone.

Fredrick Thomas Baynes (1824–1874) also a watercolour artist, was probably his son.[1]
