According to Google's help document on: Remove an image from Google


Most images that show up in Google’s search results are from websites.
Since we aren’t the owners of these sites, we can’t remove the images
from the web.

Even if we delete the image from Google’s search results, the image
still exists and can be found on other search engines, or if people
visit the URL directly.

To remove these images from search results, follow these steps:


Search on images.google.com for the image you want to find.
Select the image link by right clicking on the image thumbnail and choosing Copy link address.
Go to the Remove outdated content page.
In the "Enter URL of outdated content" box, paste the URL.
Click Request removal. If you see the message "We think the image or web page you're trying to remove hasn't been removed by the site
owner," follow the steps on the screen to give us more information. If
you see the message "This content is gone," click Request removal.
