Mural by Peru (2021) is a street-art mural at 6629 rue Saint-André, in the Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie borough of Montreal, Canada. It is a short visit for anyone exploring the city's public art, and it sits on a residential-and-local-business street rather than in a tourist centre.
About the mural
The mural was created in 2021 by the artist Peru. It was produced by AGC Art Public (Artgang) as part of the City of Montreal's Programme d'art mural, second strand. The work is part of a wider public-art programme that has placed murals across the city's neighbourhoods, and the city's own records list it under a public mural detail page.

Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie is a residential borough with its own streets of shops and cafés, so a stop at the mural pairs well with a stroll through the neighbourhood. Because the mural is outdoors, it is best seen in daylight, and visitors may want to check the city's listing before going for any updates about the site.
