place image inside grid using d3js

I want to place images inside each grid according to the data object using d3.js. here using the data each square is rendered into a grid using the d3js library. the problem here is that the image is not showing inside each grid, but it is rendering correctly inside each appropriate grid. you can find the current result and expected result below in the images. here is the code:

var data = [
    [{
        "x": 1,
        "y": 1,
        "width": 400,
        "height": 400,
        "image": "https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/wAPeTvxh_EwOisF8kMR2L2eOrIOzjfA5AjE28W5asyfGeH85glwrO6zyqL71dCC26R63chADTO7DLOjnqRoXXOAB8t2f4C3QnU6o0BA"
    }, {
        "x": 401,
        "y": 1,
        "width": 400,
        "height": 400,
        "image": "https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/Skyrdo9OUfXzZ-1N-jdhGbmpkx6G7r9QYfA3p6EKhb0u9ES4cZD9Z9C92BxM3A9VyLgHJHB7ALTPOlIfJxVLrpzYrLzPIUZsQX9mD4U"
    }],
    [{
        "x": 1,
        "y": 401,
        "width": 400,
        "height": 400,
        "image": "https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/0cDOOJjp8pUGDDFLqHFITEi35uMGZ5wHpZ9KTKridxk71kpR9MfeydpQqG5n8Mvetvkg5iVuZGeL2xMvxgBY_UL-T9p0x_Eo4EAh"
    }, {
        "x": 401,
        "y": 401,

    }]
]
var grid = d3
    .select("#grid")
    .append("svg")
    .attr("width", "1350px")
    .attr("height", "1350px");

var row = grid
    .selectAll(".row")
    .data(data)
    .enter()
    .append("g")
    .attr("class", "row");

var column = row
    .selectAll(".square")
    .data(function(d) {
        return d;
    })
    .enter()
    .append("rect")
    .attr("class", "square")
    .attr("x", function(d) {
        return d.x;
    })
    .attr("y", function(d) {
        return d.y;
    })
    .attr("width", function(d) {
        return d.width;
    })
    .attr("height", function(d) {
        return d.height;
    })
    .style("fill", "#fff")
    .style("stroke", "#222")
    .attr("transform", "translate(50,50)scale(0.5)")
    .append("svg:image")
    .attr("xlink:href", function(d) {
        return d.image;
    })
    .attr("width", function(d) {
        return d.width;
    })
    .attr("height", function(d) {
        return d.height;
    });

See here and here - meaning you can solve your issue by setting up 4 <patterns> in the <defs> for your svg and then use them as fills for each rect. There's a good d3 approach for that here.

Working example:

// your OP code for data
var data = [
  [
    {
      "x": 1, 
      "y": 1, 
      "width": 400, 
      "height": 400,  
      "image": "https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/wAPeTvxh_EwOisF8kMR2L2eOrIOzjfA5AjE28W5asyfGeH85glwrO6zyqL71dCC26R63chADTO7DLOjnqRoXXOAB8t2f4C3QnU6o0BA"
    }, 
    {
      "x": 401, 
      "y": 1, 
      "width": 400, 
      "height": 400, 
      "image": "https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/Skyrdo9OUfXzZ-1N-jdhGbmpkx6G7r9QYfA3p6EKhb0u9ES4cZD9Z9C92BxM3A9VyLgHJHB7ALTPOlIfJxVLrpzYrLzPIUZsQX9mD4U"}
  ], 
  [
    {
      "x": 1, 
      "y": 401, 
      "width": 400, 
      "height": 400, 
      "image": "https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/0cDOOJjp8pUGDDFLqHFITEi35uMGZ5wHpZ9KTKridxk71kpR9MfeydpQqG5n8Mvetvkg5iVuZGeL2xMvxgBY_UL-T9p0x_Eo4EAh"
    }, 
    {
      "x": 401, 
      "y": 401, 
      "width": 400, 
      "height": 400,

    }
  ]

// your OP code for the svg
var grid = d3
    .select("#grid")
    .append("svg")
    .attr("width", "1350px")
    .attr("height", "1350px");

// NEW code to add defs with patterns containing images
// See this post: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41486864/svg-image-inside-rect-not-displayed?noredirect=1&lq=1
var defs = grid.append("svg:defs");

for (let r=0; r<data.length; r++) {
  for (let c=0; c<data[r].length; c++) {
    let gridItem = data[r][c];
    gridItem.imgId = `img_${r}_${c}`;
    defs.append("svg:pattern")
      .attr("id", gridItem.imgId)
      .attr("width", gridItem.width)
      .attr("height", gridItem.height)
      .attr("patternUnits", "userSpaceOnUse")
      .append("svg:image")
      .attr("xlink:href", gridItem.image)
      .attr("width", gridItem.width)
      .attr("height", gridItem.height)
      .attr("x", 0)
      .attr("y", 0);  
  }
}

// your OP code for rows
var row = grid
  .selectAll(".row")
  .data(data)
  .enter()
  .append("g")
  .attr("class", "row");

// your adjusted OP code for columns
var column = row
  .selectAll(".square")
  .data(function(d) {return d;})
  .enter()
  .append("rect")
  .attr("class", "square")
  .attr("x", function(d) {return d.x;})
  .attr("y", function(d) {return d.y;})
  .attr("width", function(d) {return d.width;})
  .attr("height", function(d) {return d.height;})
  .style("fill", "#fff")
  .style("stroke", "#222")
  .attr("transform", "translate(50,50)scale(0.5)")
  // instead of adding svg:image use the defs instead
  .style("fill", function(d) {return "url(#" + d.imgId + ")";})
