## Definition and Usage

The <img> tag defines an image in an HTML page.

The <img> tag has two required attributes: src and alt.

Note: Images are not technically inserted into an HTML page, images are linked to HTML pages. The <img> tag creates a holding space for the referenced image.

Tip: To link an image to another document, simply nest the <img> tag inside <a> tags.

Example
< img src ="../images/logo.png" alt ="our logo" / > | code
