How do I define this word using an image? (Grade 9 English).?

The word is "unredressed." It's from Edgar Allen Poe's "Cask of Amontillado."

Definition: not corrected or compensated for.
Quote: "A wrong is unredressed when retribution overtakes its redresser."

I just need a image cue as an illustration. But I don't know how to draw the word "unredressed."

So unredressed means that the wrong that has been done to you has not been paid for, e.g. the thief has not been caught and punished.

So an image might be the thief spending your money and you are left starving. Don't know how you could make that into a simple image though.
