It is necessary because the image src and alt are both dynamic. The src can come from the db or from an i18n resource file and the alt can come from a i18n resource file. Width and height are not necessary because they can be hard-coded in the img tag itself in the HTML if necessary. In my case, the images do not exist in the path of the component; the images exist in an Apache directory and are served solely by Apache.
