Painting clasped, an original (9)
I believe the answer is:
landscape
'painting' is the definition.
(landscape is a kind of painting)
'clasped an original' is the wordplay.
'original' is an anagram indicator.
'clasped'+'an'='claspedan'
'claspedan' anagrammed gives 'LANDSCAPE'.
(Other definitions for landscape that I've seen before include "Outdoor painting" , "improve grounds" , "Views" , "Artistic work" , "Countryside painting" .)
