Grant Wood painting of a woman with a pitchfork-toting man (8,6)
I believe the answer is:
american gothic
'grant wood' is the definition.
The definition suggests an adjective which matches the answer.
'painting of a woman with a pitchfork-toting man' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'of' could be 'o' and 'o' is found within the answer.
'a' could be 'an' and 'an' is found within the answer.
'woman' could be 'ame' and 'ame' is located in the answer.
'man' could be 'ric' and 'ric' is located in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for american gothic that I've seen is " Famous painting".)
