[edit] Popular culture
- One of the main characters of the comic strip PvP is named Brent Sienna, after the pigment and/or the color. Brent is the art director for the fictional magazine PvP.
- On the television show Family Guy, while trying to pick up girls in a bar, the character Cleveland Brown asks "How would you like to go Black [Brown is an African-American], then have to make a difficult decision of whether or not to go back?" To which the girl replies "I already went Burnt Sienna and never went back." She then leaves the bar with a giant talking crayon of said color.
