This mural at 780 rue de Versailles in Montreal is a work of street art by the artist Izabelle Duguay, completed in 2022. It sits in the Ville-Marie borough, on a street that visitors exploring the city's downtown and its surrounding neighbourhoods can reach on foot or by public transit.
About the work
The mural was organized by รco-quartier Peter-McGill, working through the SAESEM under the city's Programme d'art mural (volet 2), a municipal initiative that brings murals to public walls across Montreal. Its record is listed in the city's own mural catalogue, which is a useful reference if you want to read more about the programme or see how the work is documented.
Is it worth a visit?
A street mural suits a visitor who likes to wander. You do not need a ticket or a set time slot, and the piece can be seen as part of a walk rather than as a destination of its own. It makes a good stop for anyone interested in how Montreal uses public art to brighten its streets and to connect residents with their neighbourhoods.

Planning your trip
Because the mural is outdoors, it is best seen in daylight, when colours and details are easiest to make out. Combine it with other sights in the downtown core to make the most of the trip, and check the city's mural listing before you go for further background on the work.
