Pascal Blanchet is a Montreal-based multi-media artist whose graphic works include collaborations with The New Yorker, Penguin Books, and The National Post. His depictions of familiar cityscapes and exotic locales recall art deco masterworks but are grounded in a contemporary vision of the world. Blanchet employs a bold colour palette in his images, which is complemented by references to times gone by and results in a combined sense of nostalgia and romance.

This vintage-inspired poster depicts the Mile End area of Montreal which was one of the first areas to be settled by the Hasidic community, and now is also a popular area for young families to find their first homes. It belongs to a series from Blanchet's second collaborative exhibition at L'Affichiste which features a variety of Montreal neighborhoods.
