Loading the same image multiple times

Assuming I load the same image in different places inside the html file like:

<img src="image.png">

and after some code I load it again. That means it'll take html double effort to load the images? If yes is there any way to pre-load the image and then use it as many times as I want without re-loading it?

Thanks in advance for your answers...

This will not preload the image, but you can add the image using JavaScript's appendChild() method to put it wherever you want.

var image1 = new Image();
image1.src = 'http://placekitten.com/g/200/300';
document.body.appendChild(image1);

If they have the same real path, then browser will cache them.
