Lower Court as represented in paintings (12)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

watercolours

'paintings' is the definition.
(I know this)

'lower court as represented' is the wordplay.
'represented' indicates anagramming the letters.
'lower'+'court'+'as'='lowercourtas'
'lowercourtas' with letters rearranged gives 'WATERCOLOURS'.

'in' is the link.

(Another definition for watercolours that I've seen is " Artists' paints".)

I've seen this clue in The Everyman puzzle in The Observer.
