A collection "Drawings from Prison" were made between 1951 and 1959 in the prisons of the Penitentiary of Lisbon, where Álvaro Cunhal spent seven years in rigorous isolation, and from the Fort of Peniche, from where he escaped on January 3, 1960. They were first published by the "Avante!" Editions in December 1975 as part of fundraising initiatives for the Portuguese Communist Party.

The artist captures the serenity of the rural environment, where horses graze peacefully in the background. The simplicity of the drawing, with gentle lines and soft shading, emphasizes the harmony between the children and their surroundings. This composition speaks to the innocence of youth and the timeless connection between humans and nature.
