In ARIA 1.3, the working group introduced image as a synonym to the img role. This was done to mitigate author confusion and errors due to the role being an outlier compared to all other roles, which are complete words or concatenations of complete words.

+

A container for a collection of elements that form an image. See synonym image.

An img can contain captions and descriptive text, as well as multiple image files that when viewed together give the impression of a single image. An img represents a single graphic within a document, whether or not it is formed by a collection of drawing objects. In order for elements with a role of img to be perceivable, authors MUST provide a label using the aria-label or aria-labelledby attribute.
