In code, you have to fetch the image URL from the database and assign it to the ImageUrl property of the Image control.

image control does not have data source property.
But, image does have a 'source' property.

Steps:
1. From database, query the image path based on the path. Query could be like:

SQL

SELECT imageURL FROM myTable WHERE pagename=@currentContentPage

2. Based on the imageURL returned, you need to access it and then use this as a image source. Something like:

C#

myImage.ImageUrl = dataTableFetched.Tables[0].Rows[0][imageURL].ToString();
//if it was absolute path to the server folder then it will work 
//or else first you need to format iinto correct url and then assign to imageURL

You need to check for validations and null as per need.

Try!
