This mural by Arnaud Grégoire is on avenue Chartrand in Montréal-Nord, on the northern edge of the city of Montreal. It was painted in 2012 and is one of the works recorded in the City of Montreal's public mural collection, where it appears as detail 24.
The piece was produced under the city's Programme graffitis et murales, carried out in partnership with MU, an organization that works on public art in Montreal. For visitors interested in street art, it is a straightforward stop: a large painted wall in a residential and commercial part of the city, seen as part of everyday neighbourhood life rather than in a museum setting.

Getting there and around
Montréal-Nord is a borough a short way north of central Montreal. Because the mural is outdoors and on a public street, a visit is simple to fit into a walk or a drive through the area. Those who want more detail can consult the City of Montreal's mural page for this work, which lists the artist, the partners and the year of creation.
Visitors combining this with other street art in Montreal may find it a useful counterpoint to the murals in the city's better-known districts, offering a look at public art in a quieter, more residential setting.
