Artist of German etchings? (5)
I believe the answer is:
manet
'artist' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'of german etchings?' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'MANET' is hidden in the letters of 'german etchings'.
(Other definitions for manet that I've seen before include "Edouard - - (painter)" , "French painter" , "Olympia artist" , "artistic individual" , "Olympia painter" .)
