Formality given to paintings, etc. - a heavenly plan (4,5)
I believe the answer is:
star chart
'a heavenly plan' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot see how one could define the other.
'formality given to paintings etc' is the wordplay.
'formality' becomes 'starch' (being excessively formal or stiff).
'given to' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'paintings etc' becomes 'art' (works of art).
'starch'+'art'='STAR CHART'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for star chart that I've seen is " Old marine guide".)
