It is almost certainly an ad blocker that is doing this. I did
duplicate this in my Safari which has a toggleable ad blocker and
it appears on disabling the blocker.

Look carefully at things like the name of the folder in which it
exist on the server, the name of the pic file itself, look at the
name of the html file it is going to... what ad blockers pick up
on depends on the ad blockers of course. I had a very puzzling
case on a commercial site I had a few weeks back. Some pictures
in one small section were not appearing in my Safari. I traced
the prob to the blocker and eventually to the name of the folder
in which the pics and html files were, called "promo"! My ad
blocker in Safari is an add on and not very sophisticated, it has
room for riules to be made more complex, (to be fair to the
developer).
