Description
Sienna was one of the first pigments used by humans. It is found in cave paintings. Siena earth is an earth pigment which, in its natural state, is called raw sienna. When heated it becomes reddish brown and is called burnt sienna. During the Renaissance, the Italian city-state of Siena produced this pigment which was used by painters then, and by artists until this day.

This image was not taken in Siena. It was taken in Venice. These walls have not been touched by me; they have been smudged by Time.
