}

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=0.5textwidth]{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}

  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.
