Montreal Gets Giant Leonard Cohen Mural
At the corner of Napoleon and Saint-Dominique
Montreal is hosting it’s fifth annual Mural Festival, and massive images are starting to crop up all over the city.
Kevin Ledo is creating a work of art at the corner of Napoleon and Saint-Dominique streets. Stroke by stroke, a familiar face began to take shape. First came the iconic hat.

Next he completed the eyes and the face, and the entire neighbourhood realized who’s likeness he was re-creating.
@LedoKevin, painted the hat first, and then filled in the eyes, giving neighbours an “a-ha” moment. @Global_Montreal pic.twitter.com/cnf2c9tF0y
