Why don't you just add an anchor around your image and open a new tab by using the href-attribute?

Example:

<a href="url"  target="_blank" >
<img />
</a>

Option 1, JavaScript approach

This will work

function openInNewTab(url) {
  var win = window.open(url, '_blank');
  win.focus();
}

You can then use it like this: 

<div onclick="openInNewTab('www.test.com');">Something To Click On</div>

Option 2, HTML approach

Really simple, just use the target='_blank' to your anchor link, e.g:

<a target="_blank" href="http://your_url_here.html">Link</a>
