Generally Google only caches the text, not the pictures.
For example, if you look at the following page,
http://www.google.com/search?q=cache:www.idiom.com/~wcs/duchamp.html+duchamp+anonymizer&hl=en

you'll see that the picture reference is <IMG SRC=duchamp1.jpg>
which expands to   http://www.idiom.com/~wcs/duchamp1.jpg

If you try to see if Google cached it anyway, by looking at
http://www.google.com/search?q=cache:www.idiom.com/~wcs/duchamp1.jpg
it's not there.
