God sculptor’s not got right (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

odin

'god' is the definition.
(Norse god)

'sculptor's not got right' is the wordplay.
'sculptor' becomes 'rodin' (Auguste Rodin was a French sculptor).
'not got' is a deletion indicator.
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'rodin' with 'r' taken away is 'ODIN'.

(Other definitions for odin that I've seen before include "Supreme Scandinavian god - what a racket" , "Supreme god of war in Norse mythology" , "I nod to the Norse deity" , "The supreme Norse god and creator" , "Pagan god" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
