By using a GUI library. And for which one, it depends of your needs...

But if you just want to display a picture, the asiest way would be Shoes
I guess.

Shoes.app do
  image "foo/bar.jpg"
end

But I guess the question is too vague to answer accurately

At least for PNG, JPEG or GIF format, yes.
You can even make it point to an image on the net.
