Forces repaired artwork on wall (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fresco

'artwork on wall' is the definition.
(a fresco might be painted on a wall)

'forces repaired' is the wordplay.
'repaired' is an anagram indicator.
'forces' is an anagram of 'FRESCO'.

(Other definitions for fresco that I've seen before include "Artwork" , "Painting done in wet plaster" , "Mode of wall painting" , "Picture painted on wall or ceiling before plaster is dry" , "Artistic work" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
