Description |
English: A union flag hangs in the main street of Les Andelys in Normandy as British forces arrive, 31 August 1944. The woman in the foreground is Madame Scarlett, wife of an expatriate Englishman and owner of the Hotel des Fleurs, place Saint-Sauveur.
A union flag hangs in the main street of Les Andelys as British forces arrive, 31 August 1944. The woman in the foreground is a 'Madame Scarlett', wife of an expatriate Englishman and owner of the Hotel des Fleurs. Français : Le guide Michelin de 1937 indique le garage Godin, spécialiste Citroën, rue Philippe-Auguste. En dépit de cette information, le rapprochement des lieux établit que la prise de vue se situe lieu au niveau de la rue Saint-Jacques : les maisons à colombages à gauche en témoignent. |

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. |
