About the Prisoner Behind Bars black filled icon
Thick vertical bars run between a top and bottom rail, and behind them stands the head-and-shoulders silhouette of a person with a collared shirt, reading as an inmate inside a cell. The icon communicates imprisonment, custody, arrest and loss of freedom. Use it in legal and law firm sites, news and crime reporting, court or case management software, criminology presentations and board game or app interfaces.
The figure is cut out of the bar grid rather than layered on top, so the negative space between bars does all the work and the shape survives at small sizes. It pairs with handcuffs, police badge and courthouse icons in the library. Give it at least 32 px so the individual bars do not merge.
This is the solid black filled version of the prisoner behind bars icon: a bold silhouette that reads clearly at 16-24 px and on dark or busy backgrounds, and prints well in one colour.
