# Image

The `Image` component renders an image for the Storefront API's [Image object](https://shopify.dev/api/storefront/reference/common-objects/image) by using the `data` prop. You can [customize this component](https://shopify.dev/api/hydrogen/components#customizing-hydrogen-components) using passthrough props.

Images default to being responsive automatically (`width: 100%, height: auto`), and expect an `aspectRatio` prop, which ensures your image doesn't create any layout shift. For fixed-size images, you can set `width` to an exact value, and a `srcSet` with 1x, 2x, and 3x DPI variants will automatically be generated for you.

#### Props

* **aspectRatio**

  **string**

  The aspect ratio of the image, in the format of `width/height`.

* **crop**

  **Crop**

  **Default: \`center\`**

  The crop position of the image.

* **data**

  **PartialDeep\<ImageType, {recurseIntoArrays: true}>**

  Data mapping to the [Storefront API `Image`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/storefront/2026-04/objects/Image) object. Must be an Image object.

* **loader**

  **Loader**

  A function that returns a URL string for an image.
