    There isn’t a direct way to do this however here are the steps you’ll need to take

    • open the page with mechanize or urllib2
    • get the html
    • parse html with lxml
    • find all image urls
    • for each image url open with mechanize or urllib2 and save

    In this situation mechanize doesn’t really offer you anything over urllib2 if you only want to deal with one page and you don’t need to login to get to it. You might find requests useful for this task.
