I have multiple external drives that I use with my laptop. I maintian collections of pictures that I access through multiple devices. I store most of my collection pictures online but once in a while I fail to keep a picture on the hard drive. Can the catalog tell me where a particular picture is stored? If so, how do I display its location?

If you right mouse click on the thumbnail in Library view and choose Show in Finder (macOS) or Show in Explorer (Windows) an OS window will open showing the photo and others in the same folder. Similarily, you can right click on a folder in Folder panel.
Both macOS (bottom of window) and Windows (below window toolbar) have a view option that allows you to display a path bar. You can use this to see exactly where on you computer or external drive the selected photo is located. I've attached a screenshot of macOS path bar.
