Pin an image onto another image (HTML/CSS)

Hi, does anybody know how to pin an image on to another image, and keep their relative position the same no matter how big the screen is (responsive)?

You could set the back image position: relative and the front image position: absolute, then use the top/bottom/left/right properties on the front image to put it anywhere relative to the back image, like 5% from the top.

The front image isn't going to be a child of the back image so the absolute positioning will not be relative to the back image. I think this could work out if the 2 images had the same parent and the absolute positioning was done relative to this parent.

James and Jason thank you so much! I give the parent div a position: relative, and the other pictures in side the div position: absolute, and it works!
