This paper aims to discuss Nature views of high school students of a public Brazilian school during their Physics classes. These classes focused on History and Philosophy of Science. All the activities were associated with historical paintings or photographs made by the students about their perspective in nature. Four activities took place in two different groups of students during their Physics class. The results of the activities were analysed by Peircean Semiotics and showed a more elaborate view of Nature during the activities.

Keywords : History and Phylosophy of Science; History of the Idea of Nature; Image.
