Hello,

Just handle the CellFormatting event, check for the column you require and pass the image you want to the cell, like so:

void grid_CellFormatting(object sender, CellFormattingEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Column.Name == "SomeColumn")
    {
        var dataBoundObject = e.CellElement.RowInfo.DataBoundItem;
        e.CellElement.Image = dataBoundObject.Image;
    }
    else
    {
        e.CellElement.ResetValue(LightVisualElement.ImageProperty, ValueResetFlags.Local);
    }
}

You have to keep in mind that because the grid reuses cell (just the displayed cells are created and drawn), you will have to reset the custom properties you set on the cell.
