Title: [Sancho Panza Covered Only by Plants]
Period: 1800-1850;
Geographic: Spain; Europe
Description: With his arms spread wide a bearded man wearing nothing but ivy over his groin walks forward. In the background a group of people and a house can be scarcely seen. The image is occasioned by Sancho Panza saying "In fine, naked I went into the government, and naked I am come out of it, and I can say, with a safe conscience, which is no small matter, ' Naked I was born, naked I am, I neither win nor lose" (Page 599).
