Comment:

 Hi and thanks for the ticket!

 I'm setting the component to Media for better visibility.

 It's worth noting that the `max-width` value can be filtered using
 `wp_calculate_image_sizes` for content images (or
 `wp_get_attachment_image_attributes` for featured images).
 [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/5.4/src/wp-
 content/themes/twentysixteen/functions.php#L512 See Twenty Sixteen theme
 for an example].

 Also, since WordPress 5.3, original images (JPEGs) can be scaled when
 uploaded. The default maximum dimension is 2560px, and the
 [https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/big_image_size_threshold/
 big_image_size_threshold] filter can adjust that value.
