Arnold Böcklin Swiss, 1827 – 1901

Isle of the Dead (third version), 1883

Your taste…

A small boat carries a white-shrouded figure and a coffin toward a rocky island of cypresses and tombs. Böcklin painted five versions and never explained it. Rachmaninoff wrote a tone poem after it, and Hitler later owned this one.

Look closer

Böcklin called it "a picture for dreaming": note the water, perfectly still, without a single ripple.
