 In the download button dropdown with the available sizes for a given image
 in the w.org Photo Directory, the final option says "Original Size".

 However, after clicking that option, you are sent to an image with an
 `-scaled` suffix on the name. Removing that brings results in the true
 original image loading, which is actually quite a bit larger.

 Using [https://wordpress.org/photos/photo/8467ac53c5/ this photo] as an
 example, the "Original Size" is listed as `3200x2133`. But after removing
 `-scaled` the image is `6000x4000`
