Sculptor is right god (5)
I believe the answer is:
rodin
'sculptor' is the definition.
(Auguste Rodin was a French sculptor)
'right god' is the wordplay.
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'god' becomes 'odin' (Norse god).
'r'+'odin'='RODIN'
'is' is the link.
(Other definitions for rodin that I've seen before include "French form master" , "Fr. sculptor (The Kiss)" , "Famous French figure" , "He sculpted" , "French artist manually" .)
