Logo for wordpress plugin

I want to show my plugin logo on the "Add Plugins" area inside of the wordpress admin area but I can't find how do that, I think this can be something similar to the image header for the plugin page but I can't find anything

The screenshot shows an example, three extension with their own logo and other with a default logo.

From the docs:

Plugin icons are 128 pixels square. HiDPI (retina) icons are supported at 256 pixels square. Like banners, these go into your /assets directory and can be either a PNG or JPG. So just create assets/icon-128x128.(png|jpg) and/or assets/icon-256x256.(png|jpg) and you have an icon.

You also have another option: SVG. Vectors are perfect for icons like this, as they can be scaled to any size and the file itself is small. For an SVG file, you simply need an assets/icon.svg file.

We may implement SVG-to-images fallbacks in core for browsers that don’t support them, so if you go the SVG route, I’d suggest also turning your SVG into a PNG. (SVG takes precedence.)

In your repository you have to add a folder called assets, and inside the filder at least a file called icon-128x128.png, and you can add another one called icon-256x256.png for users with retina displays. Check the repo for Akismet as an example.
