portray

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'graphically describe' is the definition.
'portray' can be an answer for 'describe' (thesaurus). I am not sure about the 'graphically' bit.

'harbour light?' is the wordplay.
'harbour' becomes 'port' (I've seen this before).
'light?' becomes 'ray' (ray is a kind of light).
'port'+'ray'='PORTRAY'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for portray that I've seen before include "Use words to describe" , "Paint a picture" , "Describe in words or make a picture" , "sketch" , "Show" .)
