why isn't flex working on my custom landing page

I was just trying to make a simple landing page with an image as a background and on that background three elements: a logo, a button and a row of 4 images (in flex) side by side.

I’m not sure why the flex isn’t working for the row of 4 items.

here’s my page.

The above code shows my code with placeholders. The actual page is at www.thegibsonhotel.com

Both are doing the same thing. The row of photos are bigger than the grid but my flex on them shows it should only be 25%.

Thanks for helping.

>Solution :

You should set the width of the img tag.

.interiors div img {
  width: 100%;
}
