The top graphic is the original graphic. "auto" means fit to original size. The confusion here is that "height" in percents does not mean "percent of this element." It means "percent of the height of the enclosing element." In other words, its not 50% of the image size, its 50% of the size of the entire "try it" display area, which is 400 pixels plus or minus. That's how an image with height=50% ends up larger than the original image. It'd be nice if w3schools explained these subtleties in their "tutorials" but they never do. (I'm not a fan).
