Picture of item of furniture with gold (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tableau

'picture' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'item of furniture with gold' is the wordplay.
'item of furniture' becomes 'table' (I've seen this before).
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'gold' becomes 'au' (Au is the chemical symbol for gold).
'table'+'au'='TABLEAU'

'of' is the link.

(Other definitions for tableau that I've seen before include "Diorama; vignette" , "pictorial presentation" , "Pageant" , "Living picture" , "A scene with silent motionless group of people" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
