Initialize an element that is constituted of an image.

## Declaration

```swift
init(image: UIImage)
```

## Parameters

- `image`: The image associated to the element.

## Discussion

Discussion When providing an image, your app should provide a @c UIImage that is display-ready. If necessary for the image, provide light and dark styles by using an asset from your asset catalog, prepared with light and dark styles or by using @c UIImageAsset to combine two @c UIImage instances into a single image with both styles. UIImageAsset is used to combine multiple UIImages with different trait collections into a single UIImage. note: The expected image size is given by +[CPListImageRowItemGridElement maximumImageSize]. Images provided will be resized to this size if necessary. To properly size your images, your app should size them to the display scale of the car screen. See -[CPInterfaceController carTraitCollection].
