Shrewd, displaying broken statue (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

astute

'shrewd' is the definition.
(I know that shrewd can be written as astute)

'broken statue' is the wordplay.
'broken' indicates an anagram.
'statue' with letters rearranged gives 'ASTUTE'.

'displaying' is the link.

(Other definitions for astute that I've seen before include "smart (with some self-interest?)" , "Clever and canny" , "Canny and sagacious" , "Discerning" , "Wide" .)
