A new spirit rising concerning one Italian painter (8)

I believe the answer is:

annigoni

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'painter' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.

'a new spirit rising concerning one italian' is the wordplay.
'a' becomes 'an'.
'new spirit' becomes 'gin' (alcoholic spirit. I am not sure about the 'new' bit.).
'rising' says the letters should be written backwards (going up in a down clue).
'concerning' becomes 'on'.
'one italian' becomes 'I' (abbreviation for Italian).
'gin' reversed gives 'nig'.
'an'+'nig'+'on'+'i'='ANNIGONI'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for annigoni that I've seen before include "Italian painter of famous image of the Queen" , "artist" , "Painter of early image of Elizabeth II" .)
