Image abbreviated in petition, work of art (6)
I believe the answer is:
statue
This might be a double definition.
'image abbreviated in petition' is the first definition.
'statue' can be an answer for 'image' (thesaurus). I'm not certain of the 'abbreviated in petition' bit.
'work of art' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for statue that I've seen before include "As created by 3dn" , "artwork" , "Use tat (anag.)" , "With which Bartholdi achieved eminence" , "Life sculpture" .)
