Adding button_press_event to Gtk.Image?

Question

I try to create a custom Gtk.Image that handles the "clicked" signal but when I try to emit a signal from the custom Gtk.Image ,but can't figure out why doesn't the signal emit when there is a button press event.

class WindowButton(Gtk.Image): gtype_name = "WindowButton"

__gsignals__ = {
    "clicked" : (GObject.SIGNAL_ACTION,None,(Gdk.Event,))
}

def __init__(self,*args,**kwargs):
    Gtk.Image.__init__(self,*args,**kwargs)

    self.set_from_stock(Gtk.STOCK_OK,Gtk.IconSize.SMALL_TOOLBAR)

    self.event = Gdk.Event.new(Gdk.EventType.BUTTON_PRESS)

    self.emit("button-press-event",self.event)

    self.connect("button-press-event",self.on_button_press_event)
    self.connect("clicked",self.do_clicked)

def on_button_press_event(self,event):
    print(ButtonPressEvent)
    print(event)

    self.emit("clicked",self.event)

def do_clicked(self,event):
    print('clicked')
    print(event)

GtkImage has no signal like 'clicked'. Put your GtkImage within an EventBox and hook your signals to the EventBox.
