So with this functionality above, you source the images from your Backend on build/develop and it will generate static files into your build folder.
So if you take that build and deploy it, the images will still be there even if your Backend is down.
Now if you will use gatsby build again while your backend is down, that obviously doesn't work. If you want your images to be persitent in your frontend without the need of your backend, just add them to an image folder inside your gatbsy project.
Not sure if I understand the question correctly.
