Extract/capture My Apple id profile image to a file

Long ago I snapped an image from the camera to Update My Apple ID profile image, is it possible somehow to get hold of the original image data on My MacOS Catalina device or iPad eg. from a cached file or by extracting image data from an iCloud directory-ish Service somehow rather than takling a screen capture?


Found nothing really under ~/Library or /Library...


TIA

I use to find it in my address book folder in my ~Library, but I just looked and honestly couldn’t locate it anywhere. Usually it hung out in the metadata folder. Your question really made me curious after I couldn’t locate it. I don’t know where it’s stored anymore. Good question.
