    Place images or EPS files on maps.

    Reads an Encapsulated PostScript file or a raster image file and plots
    it on a map.

    Full option list at :gmt-docs:`image.html`

    {aliases}

    Parameters
    ----------
    imagefile : str
        This must be an Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) file or a raster
        image. An EPS file must contain an appropriate BoundingBox. A
        raster file can have a depth of 1, 8, 24, or 32 bits and is read
        via GDAL. **Note**: If GDAL was not configured during GMT installation
        then only EPS files are supported.
    {projection}
    {region}
    position : str
        [**g**\|\ **j**\|\ **J**\|\ **n**\|\ **x**]\ *refpoint*\ **+r**\ *dpi*\
        **+w**\ [**-**]\ *width*\ [/*height*]\ [**+j**\ *justify*]\
        [**+n**\ *nx*\ [/*ny*]]\ [**+o**\ *dx*\ [/*dy*]].
        Set reference point on the map for the image.
    box : bool or str
        [**+c**\ *clearances*][**+g**\ *fill*][**+i**\ [[*gap*/]\ *pen*]]\
        [**+p**\ [*pen*]][**+r**\ [*radius*]][**+s**\ [[*dx*/*dy*/][*shade*]]].
        If set to ``True``, draw a rectangular border around the image
        using :gmt-term:`MAP_FRAME_PEN`.
    bitcolor : str or list
        [*color*][**+b**\|\ **f**\|\ **t**].
        Change certain pixel values to another color or make them transparent.
        For 1-bit images you can specify an alternate *color* for the
        background (**+b**) or the foreground (**+f**) pixels, or give no color
        to make those pixels transparent. Can be repeated with different
        settings. Alternatively, for color images you can select a single
        *color* that should be made transparent instead (**+t**).
    monochrome : bool
        Convert color image to monochrome grayshades using the (television)
        YIQ-transformation.
