James’s version of the Mona Lisa? (8,2,1,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

portrait of a lady

I believe this is a double definition.

'james's version' is the first definition.
(novel by Henry James)

'the mona lisa?' is the second definition.
(the Mona Lisa is a portrait of a woman)

'of' is the link.

(Other definitions for portrait of a lady that I've seen before include "Novel" , "picture of 18 ac [PEERESS]" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
