He is basically the little piece of soul Verso left. It wants to be put to rest. That's why you see his whole family putting him to rest afterwards. That's why you see his dog (a form pure love) and his plushie friend (another being with pure love) hug him because they understand what Verso wants and why he wants it. I understand Maelle's point of view but she is basically sacrificing her brother for her own happiness. He sacrificed himself once and died for her and then the piece of him that was left in the painting is also sacrificing itself for Maelle's happiness and Maelle is willing to exploit him while Verso just wants to set himself free
