As Helen says, this isn't a Delphi list. But, if you mention Firebird on the
Delphi list, you will mainly get redirected here, as well. If my answer
doesn't help enough, post this question in
borland.public.delphi.interbaseexpress without mentioning Firebird.

You need to utilize the streaming methods of the graphics components or a
graphic file. Use a TIBBlobStream created with the CreateBlobStream method
of the TIBQuery. Then, you can use the CopyFrom stream method to copy from
one to the other.
