# Overlay an Image onto Another Image

Apply a watermark image onto a base image using advanced graphics drawing features.

## Instruction

Overlay a watermark image onto another image using advanced graphics drawing capabilities.

## Code Snippet

```csharp
using (var bitmap = new Bitmap("Venice.jpg"))
using (var watermark = new Bitmap("Stamp.png"))
using (var graphics = bitmap.GetGraphics())
{
    graphics.DrawImage(watermark, 10, bitmap.Height - watermark.Height - 40);

    bitmap.Save("DrawImage.jpg");
}
```

## Explanation

The code:

- Loads a base image and a watermark image.
- Creates a graphics object from the base image for advanced drawing operations.
- Draws the watermark near the bottom-left corner of the base image with a margin.
- Saves the composited image to a new file.
