Deserve shows in the Arnolfini (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

earn

'deserve' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'in the arnolfini' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'EARN' is hidden within 'the arnolfini'.

'shows' is the link.

(Other definitions for earn that I've seen before include "Gain through labour or work" , "Deserve - merit" , "Get by working" , "Make money" , "Take home" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
