I think there is some confusion here.  There are a number of cli 
viewers, display, xv, and so on.  You can even open an image with 'gimp 
image.foo'

I thought the question was to pull up an image that exists on a remote 
machine via ssh.  The answer is yes, I do it all the time.  Can you do 
it from a command line? Yes.  Question is, does he want to open the 
image on a machine that is not running X?  If so, then he will need 
framebuffer support, but that's not how I read the question.
