Images and figures

Opt your images into responsive behavior and add lightweight styles to them—all via classes.

Responsive images

Images in Bootstrap are made responsive with .img-fluid. max-width: 100%; and height: auto; are applied to the image so that it scales with the parent element.

<img src="..." class="img-fluid" alt="Responsive image">

Image thumbnails

In addition to our border-radius utilities, you can use .img-thumbnail to give an image a rounded 1px border appearance.

<img src="..." alt="..." class="img-thumbnail">
<img src="..." alt="..." class="rounded">
<img src="..." alt="..." class="rounded-circle">

Aligning images

Align images with the helper float classes or text alignment classes. block-level images can be centered using the .mx-auto margin utility class.

<img src="..." class="rounded float-left" alt="...">
<img src="..." class="rounded float-right" alt="...">

<img src="..." class="rounded mx-auto d-block" alt="...">

<div class="text-xs-center">
  <img src="..." class="rounded" alt="...">
</div>

Figures

Anytime you need to display a piece of content—like an image—with an optional caption, consider using a <figure>.

Use the included .figure , .figure-img and .figure-caption classes to provide some baseline styles for the HTML5 <figure> and <figcaption> elements. Images in figures have no explicit size, so be sure to add the .img-fluid class to your <img> to make it responsive.

<figure class="figure">
  <img src="..." class="figure-img img-fluid rounded" alt="A generic square placeholder image with rounded corners in a figure.">
  <figcaption class="figure-caption">A caption for the above image.</figcaption>
</figure>

Aligning the figure’s caption is easy with our text utilities.

<figure class="figure">
  <img src="..." class="figure-img img-fluid rounded" alt="A generic square placeholder image with rounded corners in a figure.">
  <figcaption class="figure-caption text-xs-right">A caption for the above image.</figcaption>
</figure>
