I'm pretty sure this should be counted as a page view. As Brion notes this is the equivalent of a page view of the /wiki/File:Marcello_Malpighi_large.jpg page. If this doesn't count as a page view then mobile page views shouldn't count either as they are transformations of the canonical page as well.
