Stand for supporting a blackboard or artist's canvas (5)

I believe the answer is:

easel

(Other definitions for easel that I've seen before include "Painting support" , "Support for 12's [ARTIST]" , "Three-legged supporting frame" , "supporter of board, perhaps" , "Support in the studio" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
