The solution for that would be no different fro GWT than for any other client-side approach: write a servlet that can locate the file and stream the image contents to the response output stream. The file path/name info can either be a parameter, or, with some clever servlet mapping, part of the url used to invoke the servlet.
A search like "servlet stream image" yields a lot of possible approaches.
