The code would be look like:

        var pb = new PictureBox();
        pb.Image = Bitmap.FromFile(@"\\filepath");
        pb.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
        yourTabPage.Controls.Add(pb);

But if your sole purpose for the tab page is displaying an image, you better use the 'BackgroundImage' of the tabpage itself and use its BackgroundImageLayout to maintain image size, this saves a bit of hassel compared to adding a PictureBox

PictureBox pb = new PictureBox();
pb.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
tabPage.Controls.Add(pb);
