Don Segundo Sombra is a 1926 novel by Argentine rancher Ricardo Güiraldes.
 Like José Hernández's poem "Martín Fierro", its protagonist is a gaucho.

 Unlike Martin Fierro, purely an imaginary character, Don Segundo Sombra was loosely inspired by the real life of Segundo Ramírez, a native of the town of San Antonio de Areco in the province of Buenos Aires.
 The life of Don Segundo Sombra made it to the big screen in 1969 in an Argentine production of a film by Manuel Antín. Maricarmen Marín
