The peaceful bull, decorated with flowers, was allegedly inspired by the children’s story ‘The Story of Ferdinand’ (1936) written by Munro Leaf during the Spanish Civil War. This story likely resonated with Machin, a conscientious objector who was imprisoned at Wormwood Scrubs in 1943 for refusing to accept military call-up papers.
