Arnold Böcklin (16 October 1827 – 16 January 1901) was a Swiss-German artist.

Böcklin is best known for his five versions of painting The Isle of the Dead, which partly evokes the 'English' Cemetery, Florence, by which he had had his studio and where his baby daughter Maria had been buried.

Otto Weisert designed an Art Nouveau typeface in 1904 and named it Arnold Böcklin in his honor. The design uses tendrils hanging from many of the capital letters and across the top of the minuscule letters v through y.
