mainSrc (required)	string	Main display image url
prevSrc	string	Previous display image url (displayed to the left). If left undefined,`onMovePrevRequest` will not be called, and the button not displayed

onMovePrevRequest	func	Move to previous image event. Should change the parent state such that`props.prevSrc` becomes`props.mainSrc`,`props.mainSrc` becomes`props.nextSrc`, etc.
onMoveNextRequest	func	Move to next image event. Should change the parent state such that`props.nextSrc` becomes`props.mainSrc`,`props.mainSrc` becomes`props.prevSrc`, etc.
onImageLoad	func	Called when an image loads. `(imageSrc: string, srcType: string, image: object): void`
