Artist who’s backed 75 per cent of Eastern philosophical system (4)
I believe the answer is:
goya
'artist' is the definition.
(Francisco Goya)
I can't explain the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for goya that I've seen before include "Ay, go to see great Spanish painter" , "Span. C18 court painter" , "Eighteenth and nineteenth century Spanish painter" , "Francesco de ---, Sp. court painter" , "his etchings?" .)
