Rimbaud

Could go into the trivia:

When Arthur is asked what his family name is, he says "Rimbaud".

Later, after the visit to the Louvre, the narrator says
"Rien ne bougeait encore au front des palais. L'eau etait morte"
(aprox: "Nothing moved yet at the front of the palaces. The water
was dead")

That's a quote from Rimbaud, from "Illuminations" (Aube).
