Hi.
Suppose you encounter an image online and you want to find a good
version of it.

How come google images is such a useless tool when it comes to
finding a good quality version of an image?

Like for instance, if you search for this image via google images:

Google will find countless versions of that image online, but they are all
garbage quality.

Isn't the second search result 1920x1080?

The resolution isn't the only aspect that matters for image quality. It should
be pretty obvious if you compare the two versions I've shown in the original
thread at 100% zoomlevel. On the left side you can even make out detail
like the surface texture of the canvas and on the right side is ugly pixel soup.

How would Google (or any other search engine) be able to
automatically detect such a quality difference?
