You want the [`ImageLoader`](http://files.inductiveautomation.com/sdk/javadoc/ignition79/795/com/inductiveautomation/ignition/client/images/ImageLoader.html) class. Usage would be something like:

```auto
from com.inductiveautomation.ignition.client.images import ImageLoader
myImage = ImageLoader.getInstance().loadImage("path/to/image.png") #java Image class
myImageBytes = ImageLoader.getInstance().loadBytes("path/to/image.png") #byte array of image data

```
