The following rules should be considered while changing active form to passive voice:

• The places of subject and object will be interchanged in the sentence.

• Only 3rd form of the verb or Past Participle will be used as a main verb in the Passive Voice.

The sentence is in perfect tense then the structure for the passive voice will be:

‘Object + have + been + V3 + by + Subject’.

Therefore, the correct sentence is ‘These paintings have been made by the prisoners.’

Hence, the chosen option is correct.
