For those who don't know who is Boecklin, here is a link to his biography : http://www.artmagick.com/artists/bocklin.aspx And here another link to the painting to which Jean Nouvel was alluding, "The Isle of the Dead" : http://www.artmagick.com/paintings/painting132.aspx Jean Nouvel's Monolith was an allusion to the cypresses appearing in the middle of the painting.
