- HTML Image Tag is used to describe the source or path of the image to be displayed
- Src mandatory attribute of the HTML image tag Since the height and the width of the image is not specified, hence the image will be displayed in its full size
- alt attribute It is used to specify an alternate text for the image to be displayed. The value of the alt attribute is usually a text describing the image and is displayed if the image itself is not displayed on the browser for any reason, and is also good for SEO perspective.
