View background image is a tab manager extension for chrome. also, it is image viewer extension and code viewer extension. it's a free extension , it has 1,000+ active users since released its first version, it earns an average rating of 2.80 from 40 rated user, last update is 3012 days ago.
Adds a new menu item to web pages - "open background image in new tab". Will try to find the closest element to the clicked area that has a background image. Tries to mirror Chrome's own "open image in new tab"-functionality, but currently there seems to be no way in Chrome extensions to show a context menu item based on the return value of a function, so currently it is always shown, regardless of the presence of a background image. This extension is open-source and MIT-licensed. Source code can be found at https://github.com/rexxars/view-background-image - contributions are welcome.

It doesn't work
Does not seem to work. I tried reloading the tabs, and restarting Chrome. Tried with several websites.
I've tried a few similar extensions, and so far this is the best one. The other extensions will in some cases open multiple background images from the page (each in a separate tab), whereas this one opens only the image I'm pointing to. As a bonus, this extension is TINY!
