Required attribute, this is the path to the image, this is virtual path, so you can display image from any sources.
Remember, Image src (source) property always takes virtual path, not physical path.
Optional attribute. This specifies the width to display the image
Optional attribute. This specifies the height to display the image, Most of the time we don’t specify the height of image, unless we need to fit the image within a specific container
This is also optional, alternate text used in case the browser/user agent can't render the image, but this property is very helpful for search engine optimization
Title is an optional property, but very useful for SEO
<img src="imageName.jpg" style="width:400px;height:200px;" />
