And then define a layout inside your layouts folder:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="@android:color/white"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ImageView
android:id="@+id/remoteview_notification_icon"
android:layout_width="60dp"
android:layout_height="60dp"
android:layout_marginRight="2dp"
android:layout_weight="0"
android:scaleType="centerCrop"/>
</LinearLayout>
