You would think that if an image is online, you should be able to find it with an image search engine.

Let's take an example. I have an image here:

https://i.imgur.com/frsnk4O.jpg

Now I might want to find a better quality version of the image.

I happen to know that there is a better quality version available here:

https://www.flickr.com/photos/thcganja/52713355909/sizes/o/

Is there any image search engine that actually is able to find that better
quality version based on the low quality version at imgur?

Images google/bing and tineye seem unable to find it somehow.
