In what ? A standalone gui app, a web app ...

This would be in a stand alone gui app (JFrame)

Override the method paint of your applet.

public void paint(Graphics g)
{

Graphics2D g2;
g2 = (Graphics2D) g;
setBackground(Color.white);
g2.setColor(Color.red);
int centerWidth = 450;
int centerHeight = 600;
Image image = getImage(getDocumentBase(),"test.jpg"

g.drawImage(image, centerWidth, centerHeight, this);
}
//your image file could be any location.Here in this example it should be located on the same directory your applet runs

If you don't want to use an applet ...

import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;

public class DispTest extends JComponent {

	Image image;

	public DispTest() {
		System.out.println(image);
		image = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage("handlerightmiddle.gif");

	}

	public void paint(Graphics g) {

		Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D)g;
		g2.drawImage(image, 0, 0, this);
	}

	public static void main (String args[]) {
		JFrame f = new JFrame();
		f.setSize(600, 600);
		f.getContentPane().add(new DispTest());
		f.setVisible(true);
	}

}
