On their 1982 album The Ideal Copy, they included the track "Madman's Honey" which included the lyric "master cut the stone out, my name is Lubbert Das" — a direct reference to the painting.
The phrase "the ideal copy" is repeated throughout the song "Ambitious." Graham Lewis, in a Creem interview, stated "the ideal copy" ultimately refers to DNA, "but Bruce Gilbert had a dream about it and decided we had to take that out of the song".
