Most obscure desk art rubbished (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

darkest

'most obscure' is the definition.
('dark' can be similar in meaning to 'obscure')

'desk art rubbished' is the wordplay.
'rubbished' indicates an anagram.
'desk'+'art'='deskart'
'deskart' with letters rearranged gives 'DARKEST'.

(Other definitions for darkest that I've seen before include "Gloomiest or blackest" , "Most dim" , "Most gloomy" , "Most devoid of light" , "'The . . . . . . . hour comes before the dawn'" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
