You can choose find_all
or find
for the first match.
import re
soup = BeautifulSoup(html_str)
result = soup.find('div',attrs={'id':'img-cont','style':True})
if result is not None:
url = re.findall('\("(http.*)"\)',result['style']) # return a list.

Try the following:
import re
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
html = '''\
<div class="img-cont-box" \
id="img-cont" \
style='background-image: url("http://example.com/example.jpg");'>\
'''
soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'html.parser')
div = soup.find('div', id='img-cont')
print(re.search(r'url\("(.+)"\)', div['style']).group(1))
