The Works of the Late Edward Dayes is a 1805 London collection of a landscape painter's tour notes, essays on painting and drawing instruction, edited by E. W. Brayley and published by Mrs. Dayes for artists and students. The pictures are sepia-toned engraved views of Derbyshire and Yorkshire ruins, abbeys, bridges and wooded hillsides, printed sideways on the page, and a designer might take their picturesque framing, tonal layering of foliage and sky, and the way architecture recedes into dense trees.
