correct Style Selection with get()

correct Style Selection with get()

Hey folks

I'd like to do something like ...
  1. document.images[1].width

... with jQuery. My first thought was ...
  1. $('img').get(1).css('width')

As my Console keeps telling me that is not the right way I need a help to solve this mystery.

Normally I would access an element like that:
  1. $('#customId').css('cssProperty')
But unfortunately that doesn't work with my approach for get().

Could anybody give me a hint what my fault is here, please?
