About this piece
The Frieze has been used through history to tell stories , to record events, and pictorially to show the life of places and people. This frieze celebrates the life and social history of Ely Cathedral and its surroundings within the context of changing seasons and the trials, tribulations and triumphs which have occurred over the last 700 years.
There are recurring disasters and recoveries…reminding us of past legends and events and the continuing fortitude of those ordinary and extraordinary people who maintain and mend and celebrate even when times are hard.

About the artist
Ann Froshaug
I work in a variety of mediums, drawing, painting and making ceramics.
I combine experiment and self discipline in using different materials and work intuitively exploring my visual response to life around me. I have to care about what I am making to give it life.
I range between wanting to make art which is visually beautiful which captures the beauty of living things, and wanting at the same time, to defer and learn from what has gone before-to make work which reflects art’s history.
My subjects range widely from the gentle and beautiful to serious subjects like war and poverty.
