What's the name all about?

There's a cartoon that has just stuck in my head for about the last 30 years, since I saw it in something like Mayfair or Penthouse (historical reference: these were soft-porn magazines) when I was a teenager. It is drawn in a very ornate style, showing an eastern potentate consorting with one of his concubines, in one of the more obscure positions from the Kama Sutra. He's looking towards the reader, with an expression on his face that is almost wistful. The caption reads "In the final analysis, what can we do but tend our garden?".
I think it is a reasonable question...
