    Assuming you want that image on the menu, why not something like this?

    BufferedImage image = ImageIO.read(url);
    
    yourJMenu.setHorizontalTextPosition(SwingConstants.CENTER);
    yourJMenu.setVerticalTextPosition(SwingConstants.BOTTOM);
    
    yourJMenu.setIcon(new ImageIcon(image));
    

    EDIT : Seems you’re asking to start from scratch.

    Please refer to: How to Use Menus before reading this answer.


    EDIT 2 : Here is an SSCCE,

    import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;
    import java.net.URL;
    import javax.imageio.ImageIO;
    import javax.swing.ImageIcon;
    import javax.swing.JFrame;
    import javax.swing.JMenu;
    import javax.swing.JMenuBar;
    import javax.swing.JMenuItem;
    import javax.swing.SwingConstants;
    
    public class MenuTest {
    
        public static void main(String[] argv) throws Exception {
            // Create the menu bar
            JMenuBar menuBar = new JMenuBar();
    
            String imageURL = "http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/" +
                "drone360/wp-content/themes/discoverblog/images/" +
                "gear_icon.png";
    
            // Create a menu
            JMenu menu = new JMenu("Menu");
            BufferedImage image = ImageIO.read(new URL(imageURL));
            menu.setHorizontalTextPosition(SwingConstants.CENTER);
            menu.setVerticalTextPosition(SwingConstants.BOTTOM);
            menu.setIcon(new ImageIcon(image));
            menuBar.add(menu);
    
            // Create a menu item
            JMenuItem item = new JMenuItem("Test Item");
    
            menu.add(item);
    
            JFrame frame = new JFrame();
            frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    
            frame.setJMenuBar(menuBar);
            frame.setSize(500, 550);
            frame.setVisible(true);
        }
    }
