you can use curl and because of your condition you must get http header with curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, true); and if you don't need image you can prevent to get body with curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_NOBODY, true);. after set this option you get response like :

HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Thu, 29 Sep 2016 15:17:34 GMT Server: Apache Last-Modified: Sun, 15 Nov 2015 06:45:21 GMT Accept-Ranges: bytes Content-Length: 50822 Content-Type: image/png Age: 423 Expires: Wed, 05 Oct 2016 06:06:51 GMT

if status code is 200 like above its exist but if status code 404 its not exist.

the final code something like this:

$ch = curl_init();

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,"xyz.com/xxx/yyyy.jpg");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_NOBODY, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

$server_output = curl_exec ($ch);
curl_close ($ch);
echo $server_output;

you must read first character of a $server_output ('HTTP/1.1 200 OK' = exist) or ('HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found' = not exist)
