Importing text content using Drupal feeds module is easy. Importing images using feeds is easy too but it requires a bit work and it is not as straightforward as importing text content.
At first you have to copy image files on your server, you can copy them anywhere inside your website directory, but I prefer copying it to public files directory(sites/default/files).
After you have copied the images, you need to create a CSV importer. Inside that CSV importer we will specify the path of the image. Look at the feed importer:

You can change the exploding character to anything else, but make sure the character is unique and is not present in the URL of image.
Here is the CSV importer for importing multiple images:
I hope everything is clear. Good luck :)
