Des in gallery finds beautiful woman (7)
I believe the answer is:
goddess
'beautiful woman' is the definition.
'des in gallery' is the wordplay.
'in' is an insertion indicator.
'gallery' becomes 'gods' (I've seen this in other clues).
'des' going within 'gods' is 'GODDESS'.
'finds' is the link.
(Other definitions for goddess that I've seen before include "Eg, Aphrodite" , "Female deity" , "Say Athena" , "Such as Venus" , "divinity" .)
