# Crossed out red box fitting tightly around image

I can do

\textcolor{red}{
\fbox{
\includegraphics{path}
}
}


To get a red frame sitting tightly around an image inside a firgure environment. Now, is there a way to also get a red cross over the image?

Kind regards.

A TikZ solution that includes the image file inside a tikzpicture and draws a square and cross relative to the coordinates of the image:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tikz}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\node[inner sep=0] (image) at (0,0) {\includegraphics[width=0.5\textwidth]{example-image}};
\draw[red,ultra thick] (image.south east) -- (image.north west);
\draw[red,ultra thick] (image.north east) -- (image.south west);
\draw[red,ultra thick] (image.south west) rectangle (image.north east);
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}


• My compliments for your answer. I have deleted my previous comment for the OP. – Sebastiano Apr 25 '19 at 11:48
• Even shorter: \draw[red,ultra thick] (image.south west) rectangle (image.north east); \draw[red,ultra thick] (image.south east) -- (image.north west); \draw[red,ultra thick] (image.north east) -- (image.south west); ;-) – AndiW Apr 25 '19 at 12:03
• @AndiW Better indeed :) I've edited my answer. – Marijn Apr 25 '19 at 12:06
• Thanks to all of you. When changing the answer, you forgot one of the diagonals in the cross. You might want to fix that. Personally I also liked it better without ultra thick (then it's also more similar to \fbox) but I guess that's a matter of taste. – sigvaldm Apr 25 '19 at 12:32

as supplement to @Marjin answer (+1), a little bit shorter code ...

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tikz}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\node  (image) [inner sep=0] {\includegraphics[width=0.5\textwidth]{example-image}};
\draw[red,ultra thick]  (image.south west) -- (image.north east)
(image.north west) -- (image.south east)
(image.south west) rectangle (image.north east);
\end{tikzpicture}


the result is similar:
