# Attachment: Broken image

> When an image preview fails to load, it falls back to a file icon.

Example: https://hextaui.com/docs/attachment/examples/broken-image
Component docs: https://hextaui.com/docs/attachment.md

## Add this example

```bash

export function AttachmentBrokenImage() {
  return (
    <Attachment>
      <AttachmentMedia variant="image">
        <img src="/preview/missing.png" alt="" />
      </AttachmentMedia>

        <AttachmentDescription>Preview unavailable</AttachmentDescription>
      </AttachmentContent>
    </Attachment>
