This is an incomplete list of works by Edward Thomas Daniell, an English landscape painter and etcher, best known for drawings made on an expedition to the Middle East and the coast of Lycia. Born in 1804 of wealthy parents, he was brought up in Norwich by his widowed mother. He studied at Balliol College, Oxford, was licensed as the curate at Banham, Norfolk in 1832, and two years later became a curate in London, where he was a patron of the arts. In 1842, whilst on his travels around Lycia, he contracted malaria and died at Antalya.
Daniell exhibited his paintings but was not forced to earn his living from them. His style was influenced by John Crome, J. M. W. Turner and John Sell Cotman. His etchings, of which 52 have been identified, demonstrate his great skill in the use of drypoint,
