Go to the "Insert" tab, which is in between "Home" and "Page Layout." Then,
click on the button that says "Clip Art" on it (between picture and shapes). A
sidebar should pop up on the right. From there, search for the picture you want.
When you have found the picture, double click it and the picture should appear
