There's a less-than-simple standard that does allow you to do this without relying on Gravatar or being Google-only.

It's called BIMI, and works via a combination of DNS and a static image file.

It's especially useful because while Gravatar is popular on the web and in various email providers/clients, Gmail refuses to adopt it, whereas with BIMI you'd get your image in Gmail clients too.
