The small picture is a placeholder from the browser if an image should be rendered at the place, but (still) could not be loaded.

First check if you used the right quotation marks. English quotation marks should be: " (Shift + 2).

If this fits, the file path would be checked:

The head.jpg file must be in the same directory as the HTML file.
The image file must have the same name as in the HTML code. This also includes the large/small spelling. For your operating system, activate the display of file extensions (if disabled) or open the file properties in the file explorer and see if the file is actually just Head.jpg.

Once again reload the website with Ctrl + F5 (reload without a browser cache).

Auxiliary note: Your img -element is incomplete, because it is still missing old age -Attribute. This is used to specify an alternative textual description if the image (still) could not be loaded. Which value fits best is dependent on case, this guide can help you.
