Unable to extract image src with bs4

So I'm trying to scrape this website product image src's using BeautifulSoup. The problem is that when I use the image class to select the src I get the error: TypeError: list indices must be integers or slices, not str.

This is what I have:

images = soup.find_all('img', {'class': 'css-1rovmyu e65zztl0'})['src'] # gives error ^

Also when I do:

images = soup.find_all('img')

for image in images: 
   print(image['src'])

It returns all the image src's and works fine. I was reading another problem similar to fine and it said the fact that the image is nested may be the problem but it didnt work. This is the structure:

<picture class="css-yq9732">
    <img class="css-1rovmyu e65zztl0" src="image src">
</picture>

images is a list, you have to access the index of the list and extract the value. For example:

images = soup.find_all('img', {'class': 'css-1rovmyu e65zztl0'})

print(images[0]["src"])

Or to only get the first tag, use find() instead of find_all()
