Brown is the

red,
black and
yellow, or red, yellow and blue. In the
RGB color model used to make colors on television screens and computer monitors, brown is made by combining red and green, in specific proportions. The brown color is seen widely in nature, in wood, soil, and human
hair color,

humility, the rustic, and
poverty. Brown is also, according to public opinion surveys in Europe and the United States, the least favorite color of the public.
