Then the feature was hidden behind experimental flags and non-functional, but with Windows 10 Insider Build 21337, released today, the feature is now working.

Users are also able to “Learn about this picture” from a hotspot on the bottom right of the page – double-clicking on this will Bing the location.

The feature will presumably roll out as part of Windows 10 21H2 later this year.
