Cyril James Fenton Frost (1880–1971) was an English painter who specialised in portraiture.

[2] Also in 1942, an airman, Flight Sergeant Ernest Little, and his wife were billeted in Frost's Banbury home.

Frost painted him in his flying gear, and the resultant portrait, "Return from Dusseldorf", was exhibited at the RA in 1943.

[3][4][5] In 2016, the then owners of the painting, Cherwell District Council, gave it to Little, who had not seen it since it was shown at the RA.

[10] In August 2019 the restoration of one of his portraits, in the ownership of the sitter's son, was shown on the BBC television programme The Repair Shop.
