I'm trying to draw a textbox over an image like this:
Here's what I have so far:
documentclassarticle
usepackage[paperwidth=50cm,paperheight=70cm,margin=1.3cm]geometry
usepackagexcolor
usepackagetikz
definecolorbackgroundHTML2C414C
definecolorforegroundHTMLFFFFFF
begindocument
pagecolorforeground
begincenter
begintikzpicture[y=0.80pt, x=0.80pt, yscale=-1, xscale=1, inner sep=0pt, outer sep=0pt]
% IMAGE
node[anchor=north west,inner sep=0] at (0,0) includegraphics[scale=3.0]example-image-c;
% OUTER RECTANGLE
path[draw=foreground,fill=background,line width=1.600pt]
(232,465) rectangle (512,586);
% INNER RECTANGLE
path[draw=foreground,fill=background,line width=0.800pt]
(241,476) rectangle (502,576);
% TITLE
path[fill=foreground] (340.3773,522.9204) node[above right] (text3826) TITLE;
% SUBTITLE
path[fill=foreground] (331.4183,546.7606) node[above right] (text3830) SUBTITLE;
endtikzpicture
endcenter
enddocument
How do I:
- Horizontally center OUTER RECTANGE within IMAGE.
- Center INNER RECTANGLE within OUTER RECTANGLE.
- Center TITLE and SUBTITLE within INNER RECTANGLE as shown.
I don't want to use precise coordinates like (241,476) all over the place. Any alternative ways of drawing this (even without TikZ) would be welcome!

Please can you make your code compilable and use an image we all have, such asexample-imageorexample-image-cor whatever?

@cfr's proposal is better, but if you really need to put the boxes at these coordinates, just put them at the center of the coordinates and assign them the necessaryminimum widthandminimum height.

I'd name the node with the image and then place the other things relative to that, using positioning and fit. The picture then consists of three nodes: the picture, the box with text and a box with the thick outer line.
documentclass[border=10pt]standalone
usepackagetikz
definecolorbackgroundHTML2C414C
definecolorforegroundHTMLFFFFFF
usetikzlibrarypositioning,fit
begindocument
begintikzpicture[inner sep=0pt, outer sep=0pt, text=foreground, draw=foreground, fill=background, font=sffamilyLARGE]
node (n) includegraphicsexample-image;
node (o) [draw, fill, double distance=2.5ex, double=background, line width=.8pt, inner ysep=20pt, inner xsep=50pt, anchor=south, above=5ex of n.south, align=center] TITLE\SUBTITLE;
node [draw, line width=1.6pt, fit=(o), inner sep=1.25ex] ;
endtikzpicture
enddocument
