I just watched The Boy and the Heron and I'm convinced that there is some kind of connection between it and the art of the Swiss symbolist painter Arnold Böcklin. The strange ruins/tomb by the sea and all those cyprus trees. There is even a painting by Böcklin (St. Anthony preaching to the fish) with a bunch of fish coming out of the water to talk to a person - just like in the movie! This is probably just a silly theory but I want it to be true.
The Isle of the Dead (1883) by Arnold Böcklin (1827–1901).

Jean-Baptiste Poncet, 1827/1901
A young flute player by the sea, 1861
Larger than natural, the painting is 75"/57"
Note, the lizard, considered a good luck charm in many cultures, it symbolizes regeneration, so here the young boy carrying new seed.
This one plays the Aulos.
Called “aulete” he had a central role in the sacrifices and in the Panhellenic Games had the role of conductor in the ancient “orchestra”.
