Question

I have a table having an image in the first column and text in other three columns. the Image vertically aligns at the top and the text aligns at the bottom although I want the image to be center aligned and text to be top aligned

\usepackage{array}
\newcolumntype{L}{>{\raggedright\arraybackslash}p{3cm}}
\newcolumntype{Q}{>{\raggedright\arraybackslash}p{4cm}}


\begin{table}[h]
 \centering
    \resizebox{\textwidth}{!}{
      \begin{tabular}{ |c|L|Q|L| }
       & \textbf{Column1} & \textbf{Column2} & \textbf{Column3} \\
        \hline
        \includegraphics[width=50mm]{images/1.jpg} &
        column 2 text. &
        column 3 text. &
        column 4 text. \\

    \centering
\begin{tabular}{ |Q|L|Q|L| }
    \hline
    & \textbf{Column1} & \textbf{Column2}   & \textbf{Column3} \\
    \hline
\includegraphics[width=\linewidth,
                 margin=0pt \tabcolsep pt 0pt \tabcolsep pt, % from "adjustbox"                            
                 valign=c]                                   % from "adjustbox"
                 {example-image}%{images/1.jpg}
