Notes |
See 2006,U.496. 'Thé de la mère Gibou' ('Mother Gibou's tea') is an slang expression, the origin of which is to be found in a popular farce dating from 1832, where a character makes tea from vinegar, oil, pepper, eggs and flour; the expression was eventually used to designate all kinds of hotchpotches or makeshift jobs. Gavroche, in Victor Hugo's 'Les Misérables', compares the making of a barricade to 'le thé de la mère Gibou'. |

Licensing[edit]
This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag. Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag. |
