Broken sculpture (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bust

This clue is a double definition.

'broken' is the first definition.
(bust can mean broken)

'sculpture' is the second definition.
(bust is a kind of sculpture)

(Other definitions for bust that I've seen before include "Sculpture of head and chest" , "Chest; bankrupt" , "Piece of sculpture - broken!" , "Financially ruined" , "Small statue" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent, The Telegraph and The Times.
