La Baie’s long and storied legacy is coming to an end. Founded in 1845 in Montreal by Henry Morgan and David Smith, the Morgan’s store (now La Baie), located at 585 Sainte-Catherine Street West since 1891, is an iconic Montreal store known for its economic and cultural activities.

Paul-Émile Borduas held two exhibitions there: from May 16 to 29, 1941, and from April 23 to May 4, 1946. You can find more information about these exhibitions as part of our project “Mapping the Automatists in Montreal” on our website.
