Examples:
<img src="product.jpg" alt="Classic leather bag in black color"><img src="icon.png" alt="Settings icon"><img src="beach.jpg" alt="Sandy beach with palm trees and ocean at sunset">Attribute titlePurpose: The title attribute provides additional information about the image when the cursor hovers over it.
