Short noble in Lyon that is flamboyant (7)
I believe the answer is:
baroque
'is flamboyant' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'short noble in lyon' is the wordplay.
'short' means to remove the last letter.
'noble' becomes 'baron' (baron is a kind of noble).
'in lyon' becomes 'que' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'baron' with its final letter taken away is 'baro'.
'baro'+'que'='BAROQUE'
'that' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for baroque that I've seen before include "Style of e.g. Wren, Bach" , "Bach's music style" , "Extravagantly ornate" , "Elaborate style" , "With elaborate ornamentation" .)
