But it's not being used to describe something, it's not saying "she drew a portrait in the dirt much like Van Gogh's Starry Night" giving us some nice imagery, it is literally saying she drew Van Gogh's Starry Night. Usually it bugs me when people reference real world things when describing in RP things but as long as it's nothing particularly extreme I try to let it go. This just seems downright strange. I don't really know the character involved so maybe it was supposed to iterate that they were a good artist or had a good memory for pictures, I don't know but there are better ways to do that than dragging an oddly specific thing from the real world into Fiore. Then if it wasn't actually important and she was just passing the time it seems it would be better just to say that she was drawing in the dirt if what she was drawing wasn't important.
