<head>
</head>
<body>
<div class="product-single__meta">
<h1 class="product-single__title">Basic knit dress chest</h1>
<form class="product-form product-form-product-template">
<input type="hidden" name="form_type" value="product"><input type="hidden" name="utf8" value="✓">
<div class="product-form__item product-form__item--submit product-form__item--payment-button">
<button type="submit" name="add" aria-label="Add to cart" class="btn product-form__cart-submit btn--secondary-accent" data-add-to-cart="">Add to cart</button>
</div>
</form>
</div>
</body>
</html>
And I want to add a HTML snippet (a trust seal image) to HTML code above:
<img src="https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/2588/5532/files/PROD1_500x.png?v=1523432071" />
