How to retrieve image url on a page through REST API

Question

I'm using rest api to retrieve title, main text etc. of pages on a site on sharepoint online. Problem is when I fetch the xml of a page, there is no reference to the picture that is loaded on the page. I even get the caption but no reference to the picture.

here's an example of the xml I get and the uri I use: https://mysite.sharepoint.com/sites/test/_api/web/lists/pages/items(6)

xml:

<content type="application/xml">
 <m:properties>
<d:FileSystemObjectType m:type="Edm.Int32">0</d:FileSystemObjectType>
<d:Id m:type="Edm.Int32">6</d:Id>

It does not seem possible to retrieve Publishing Image fields using SharePoint REST directly, refer this post for an additional information.

There is a workaround, publishing fields could be retrieved using a separate request to /_api/web/lists/getbytitle('Pages')/items(<item id>)/FieldValuesAsHtml endpoint.

The following example demonstrates how to retrieve PublishingPageImage property from an article page:

/_api/web/lists/getbytitle('Pages')/items(<item id>)/FieldValuesAsHtml?$select=PublishingPageImage
