Another clarification to make it easier for the reader, namely, say how 
role="presentation" and aria-hidden="true" are equivalent in this case:

"
Consequently, using a role=“presentation” or role=“none” on an <img> 
element is equivalent to using aria-hidden=“true”, where the <img> is 
not exposed to accessibility APIs. If it is possible to make the 
descendent elements accessible, the user agent SHOULD embed the DOM 
representing those descendants directly within the host document.
"

Or, maybe I'm beating a dead horse.
