print() adds an additional \n, so there's one too many.
Also, HTTP headers should be separated with \r\n, not \n.

(besides, under Windows \n will be converted to \r\n by the text I/O
layer, therefore, it would be better to use the binary I/O layer, a.k.a
sys.stdout.buffer, if you want your script to be portable)

Therefore, I would advocate rewriting it as:

sys.stdout.buffer.write(b"Content-type:image/jpeg\r\n\r\n")
