By default, they are (that is, if you're talking about at the browser).

Hi sviau,


Thanks for posting in the community!
From your description, you are looking for some means to force the client
side cache the images in web page,yes?
If there is anything I misunderstood, please feel free to let me know.

As for this question, I agree with Kevin that this behavior is by default
implemented by the brower, since it'll cache the certain resource when
first time request it and retrieve it from the client cache for later
using. So we needn't provide additional operations. However, we need to add
custom headers or use some additional approachs if we want to force the
client browser not use the cache:). And here is a kb article discussing on
this topic:
