What type of file are you retrieving? The Image class only works for the Bitmap(bmp) and Windows Metafile(wmf) file formats. My guess is the file you are retreiving is not one of these two types of files. Another consideration is the file could be corrupted or the query is returning null.

This is actually very easy.

The image datatype that stores an image in Sql Server is actually a byte stream. So just parse it and store the stream into a file using the same mime type.
