You can have it base64 encoded.
$Byte = [system.io.file]::ReadAllBytes("C:yourImage.png")
$Base64 = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String($Byte)
$Content = '{0}{1}{2}' -f '<img src="data:image/png;base64,',$Base64,'">'
Use the content as the message Body.

When i check with inspect element i could see like this "<img data-imagetype="Empty" data-imageerror="SrcNullOrEmpty" originalsrc="" src="">". But when i copy pasted the $Content in a web page for checking it is displaing my image perfectly. Can you please suggest why $content is not matched with the image tag in mail.
