clickable button over image/icon in vuetify

You may look into HTML Links

HTML links are hyperlinks. You can click on a link and jump to another document. When you move the mouse over a link, the mouse arrow will turn into a little hand.

Therefore, your code should be

<a href="#"><v-img>...</v-img></a>

go through this let me know if still, you face any problems.

Here is the code :-

        <v-btn icon @click="btnClicked">
          <v-img
            src="https://picsum.photos/510/300?random"
            aspect-ratio="1.7"
          ></v-img>
          </v-btn>
