    this.props.getDataMap(); //return object which has the fields e.g. id,... and field URL which specifies where image is  
    const { canvasWidth, canvasHeight } = this.state.canvasA;
    this.canvasA.width = canvasWidth;
    this.canvasA.height = canvasHeight;

You can try something like this

componentDidMount() {
  const context = this.canvasA.getContext('2d');

  const image = new Image();
  image.src = "whereever-you-image-url-live.jpg";
  image.onload = () => {
    context.drawImage(image, 0, 0, this.canvasA.width, this.canvasA.height);
  };
}
