You may be able to use FXImageView or FXImageFrame, these display an image.

The mechanics of setting the image depend a little bit on where it comes
from.

My suggestion is to determine which way the image goes into the application
first.  Possibilities are from a file, via drag and drop, or maybe through
a communication socket?

Its difficult to answer the question without this info.  On the other hand,
reading images from streams [files, memory stream, etc] is probably the most
flexible.
