Behold this clue calligraphy, say? (4,3)
I believe the answer is:
lost art
'calligraphy say?' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'behold this clue' is the wordplay.
'behold' becomes 'lo' (archaic exclamation meaning 'look!').
'this clue' becomes 'start' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'lo'+'start'='LOST ART'
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
