How to show the profile picture in the header of the Microsoft List form?

Question

I have a Microsoft List with a Person column called Picture and with the setting Show Picture to True. I have copied the example header code from the Microsoft site Which shows some other picture. How can i replace this picture with the profile picture stored in the column Picture.

The header Example code: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/dev/declarative-customization/list-form-configuration#configure-custom-header I know i have to replace the line "iconName": "Group" and change it to get the profile picture from the column Picture.

How can I do that? Does anyone know the code?
