The image above was the very first image posted to the Web. Motherboard has an essay on the origins of the image titled Crossdressing, Compression and Colliders: The First Photo on the Web.
“The first photographic image ever uploaded to the Web was a Photoshop disaster. It was created to sell something, and featured attractive women in a come-hither pose… In short, photo-uploading was born with some original sins that have never quite washed away.”
