You need to request the art page first to save the cookie userinfo and get the individual download link (containing token and timestamp) the page gave you. It could be found with a string search for the download button element and extracting the href value.

<a class="dev-page-button dev-page-button-with-text dev-page-download"

Now you just have to send a request for that individual download link with the saved cookie and you will be redirected to your image.
