You can define an ImageView in your layout like this:

<ImageView
    android:id="@+id/Image"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:src="@drawable/Icon" />

This will set the image to be a drawable resource named Icon. You can also set it from C# using the SetImageResource method:

var image = FindViewById<ImageView>(Resource.Id.Image);
image.SetImageResource(Resource.Drawable.Icon);

Depending on where you want to pull the image from there are other methods on ImageView that might help, such as SetImageURI or SetImageDrawable.
