First image of slideshow does not load

I've just started with CSS and JavaScript, and I tried to make an image slider by looking into w3schools. The slider works, but the first image always comes empty only with the navigation bars being visible.but once I click the next button, it works fine.I'm not understanding what to change with this. Here's the code.

'use strict';
var slideIndex = 1;

function plusSlides(n) {
  showSlides(slideIndex += n);
}

function currentSlide(n) {
  showSlides(slideIndex = n);
}

function showSlides(n) {
  //alert('showslides('+ n +')\nslideIndex='+slideIndex);
  var i;
  var slides = document.getElementsByClassName("mySlides");
  var dots = document.getElementsByClassName("dot");
  if (n === undefined) {
    n = ++slideIndex;
  }
  if (n > slides.length) {
    slideIndex = 1;
  }
  if (n < 1) {
    slideIndex = slides.length;
  }
  for (i = 0; i < slides.length; i++) {
    slides[i].style.display = "none";
  }
  for (i = 0; i < dots.length; i++) {
    dots[i].className = dots[i].className.replace(" active", "");
  }
  slides[slideIndex - 1].style.display = "block";
  dots[slideIndex - 1].className += " active";

  setTimeout(showSlides, 5000); // Change image every 5 seconds
}
* {
  box-sizing: border-box;
}

body {
  font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;
  margin: 0
}

.mySlides {
  display: none;
}

img {
  vertical-align: middle;
}


/* Slideshow container */

.slideshow-container {
  max-width: 1000px;
  position: relative;
  margin: auto;
}


/* Next & previous buttons */

.prev,
.next {

  font-weight: bold;

}


/* Position the "next button" to the right */

.next {

  border-radius: 3px 0 0 3px;

The slider works, but the first image always comes empty only with the navigation bars being visible

Just because of you apply css this mySlides on your, so your all div not visble. When you are click on next or previous or slider so particular container are showing.

So you need to apply the style="display: block;" on your first div.

DEMO

var slideIndex = 1,
    interval;

function stopAndStart() {
    if (interval) {
        clearInterval(interval)
    }
    interval = setInterval(showSlides, 5000); // Change image every 5 seconds;
}

function plusSlides(n) {
    showSlides(slideIndex += n);
    stopAndStart()
}

function currentSlide(n) {
    showSlides(slideIndex = n);
    stopAndStart()
}

function showSlides(n) {
    var i,
        slides = document.getElementsByClassName("mySlides"),
        dots = document.getElementsByClassName("dot");

    if (n === undefined) {
        n = ++slideIndex;
    }
    if (n > slides.length) {
        slideIndex = 1;
    }
    if (n < 1) {
        slideIndex = slides.length;
    }
    for (i = 0; i < slides.length; i++) {
        slides[i].style.display = "none";
    }
    for (i = 0; i < dots.length; i++) {
        dots[i].className = dots[i].className.replace(" active", "");
    }
    slides[slideIndex - 1].style.display = "block";
    dots[slideIndex - 1].className += " active";
}

stopAndStart();
body {
  font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;
  margin: 0
}

.mySlides {
  display: none;
  text-align: center;
}

img {
  vertical-align: middle;
}


/* Slideshow container */

.slideshow-container {

.next {
