Easel at bottom, artist finally sorted drawing position (9)
I believe the answer is:
stalemate
'drawing position' is the definition.
'stalemate' can be an answer for 'position' (I have seen 'Deadlocked position ' mean 'stalemate' so perhaps 'position' could also mean 'stalemate'). I'm unsure of the 'drawing' bit.
'easel at bottom artist finally sorted' is the wordplay.
'finally' suggests the final letters.
'sorted' is an anagram indicator.
The last letters of 'bottom artist' are 'mt'.
'easel'+'at'+'mt'='easelatmt'
'easelatmt' with letters rearranged gives 'STALEMATE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for stalemate that I've seen before include "Indecisive chess ending" , "Possible chess game ending" , "Inconclusive result" , "where moving is impossible" , "Unresolvable position" .)
