I don't know what form the data has when you get it out of your XML document,
but you can use this method of javax.imageio.ImageIO:
public static BufferedImage read(InputStream input) throws IOExeption
If the XML API gives you a byte[] instead of an InputStream, there's
always ByteArrayInputStream.

However XML is a text format that does not permit arbitrary binary data, so if it contains bytes to make a JPG then those bytes must have been encoded in some way. You will have to decode them in the corresponding way, whatever that is. It is common to use Base64 encoding to put binary data into XML but that does not mean your binary data was encoded that way.
