Image conjured by small literary house (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

litho

'image' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'small literary house' is the wordplay.
'small literary' becomes 'lit' (short for literary or literature; 'small' asks for a short form).
'house' becomes 'ho' (abbreviation for house).
'lit'+'ho'='LITHO'

'conjured by' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for litho that I've seen before include "Image" , "print in short form" , "work of artist" , "Method of printing using treated plate" , "work of art" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
