it means, that Photos cannot access the original version of the image. This can happen, if you are using iCloud Photos and Photos cannot download the original full resolution version of he image from iCloud, either because of network problems, or problems with your Apple ID, lack of iCloud storage, or because you do not have enough free storage on your Mac to download the photos?
Does any of this apply?
- How much free storage is on your system volume?
- Is there problem with your network connection? Is your Mac connected to Wi-Fi? Do you have a firewall or Anti Virus software set up, that could be blocking the connection to Apple's cloud servers?
- Do you have plenty of feee iCloud Storage?
