I don't believe so. If you wanted to give a sense of the design of the
site, you would do it once, perhaps something hidden on the homepage.

I would also differentiate between content images (i.e. per image /
page), and site-wide styles. Luckily, content images are usually
foreground, whilst site 'styles' are generally templated or in the
CSS, neither of which should have descriptions.

Kind regards,
