Picture a yard in Indian territory (4)
I believe the answer is:
goya
'picture' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?
'a yard in indian territory' is the wordplay.
'a yard' becomes 'y' (abbreviation).
'in' is an insertion indicator.
'indian territory' becomes 'goa' (I've seen this before).
'y' inserted inside 'goa' is 'GOYA'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for goya that I've seen before include "Spanish painter, d. 1828" , "Span. C18 court painter" , "Eighteenth to nineteenth century Spanish artist" , "Eighteenth and nineteenth century Spanish painter" , "Ay, go to see great Spanish painter" .)
