The easiest way would be to use X. Get the Amiga A2065 ethernet board &
tcp-ip software, and GfxBase's X11 for the Amiga. Use one of the X
displayers (whatever is available on the SG).

I do hope you realize that the picture won't look the same...

Alternately you could use one or more of the picture converters to get
it to an IFF format, but I don't know anything about the picture format
used by SG. (Could find out if you really need to know).
