"View of Delft” painter (7)
I believe the answer is:
vermeer
'view of delft painter' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for vermeer that I've seen before include "Jan -, seventeenth-century Dutch painter" , "Dutch painter, 1632-75" , "Dutch painter renowned for his use of light" , "Jan -, seventeenth century Dutch painter" , "Painter active in Delft, d. 1675" .)
