# image

The image content displayed by this markup.

## Declaration

```swift
var image: CGImage? { get async }
```

## Discussion

Discussion Image content is shown scaled to fill. This property is async because an in-memory CGImage is not always loaded from disk. The image property can be nil when streaming the data model and the image asset has not yet been received.
