Partially hang a cross around Italian artist (7)

I believe the answer is:

orcagna

'italian artist' is the definition.
(14th-century Italian artist)

'partially hang a cross around' is the wordplay.
'partially' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'around' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'angacro' is hidden in the letters of 'hang a cross'.
'angacro' in reverse letter order is 'ORCAGNA'.

I've seen this clue in The Times.
