Facebook has an ID number for every image uploaded on the platform. You can use the ID number of the photos to find the person you want.

You can use any image saved on your device or the one you find online that you want to see on FB.
- Open the image on your desktop and right-click on it.
- Tap on Open in a new tab and copy the image ID number. For example- 1165577711827345408.
- Now open the new tab and paste this link- https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid= (your photo ID number) with the ID number into the search box.
- You will be directly taken to the Facebook page or profile from which the photo was posted.
If the FB page or profile is locked you will not be able to see the image on the platform.
Now, if the Facebook profile is locked or private, you might not be able to see the post.
