You can retrieve an image using the httpRequest.getRawProxy method and then creating the Image element using a Blob URL:

httpRequest.getRawProxy("http://example.org/hello.jpg")
    .then(function(imageBuffer) {
        var imageBlob = new Blob([imageBuffer], {type: "image/jpeg"});
        var imageBlobUrl = URL.createObjectURL(imageBlob);

        var img = new Image();

        img.onload = function() {
            console.log("Image loaded:", img);
        };

        img.onerror = function(error) {
            console.error("Unable to load the image:", error);
        };

        img.src = imageBlobUrl;
    })
    .done();
