Have a look at the DownloadApp sample I wrote for the new Struts DownloadAction
(http://www.omnytex.com/downloadapp.zip)... You may not be using Struts, but
you should still be able to get the basics of the approach from that (even NOT
using Struts, it should be a trivial matter to transform the Action class into
a Servlet, the rest as I recall should be independant of Struts). One of the
demonstrations is in fact downloading an image from a database. Incidentally,
I'd say this (getting the image from a database and returning it via a servlet
pointed to by an <img> tag) is the "typical" pattern for solving this problem.
