HTML DOM image naturalWidth property

Last Updated : 21 Jun, 2023

naturalWidth: This property is used to get the original width of an image. Since the width of an image to be displayed on the webpage can be modified using the ‘width’ attribute of the <img> tag, hence the naturalWidth property becomes useful in situations where the original width of the image is required rather than the customized one. It is a read-only property.

Syntax :

imageObject.naturalWidth

Return Value: It returns the original width of the image in pixels.

Example: In this example, we will see the use of the DOM image naturalWidth property
