You can only write one value to a given header, so the second header is overwriting the first. Two solutions are

1. write out a url to the image in the html - will be slightly slower for the user (needing an extra http request to fetch the image), but depending on the use case this is normally acceptable and very simple to implement
2. convert the image to a data-uri string and include this in the html as the source of the image. More complicated to implement than the first approach ( I don't know of any libraries for doing the conversion in node) and with negligible benefits.
