L'Affichiste

L’Affichiste is where Montreal’s history meets the timeless allure of graphic art. As the city’s only vintage poster gallery, it transforms advertising ephemera into celebrated artifacts of design. Housed in a light-drenched space dating back to the 1830s near the Notre Dame Basilica, this gallery invites visitors to linger among treasures from the Belle Époque to Mid-Century Modern eras, alongside a growing collection of contemporary works.

From bold Art Deco statements to charming Mid-Century designs, the gallery’s curated collection spans decades and styles, each piece telling its own visual story. Posters, once fleeting tools of persuasion, here become enduring pieces of cultural history.
