Create a wxImage from the jpg file, and then a wxBitmap from the image,
then a wxStaticBitmap control from the bitmap.

for example,

i = wxImage("about.jpg", wxBITMAP_TYPE_JPEG)
b = wxBitmapFromImage(i)
sb = wxStaticBitmap(dialog, b, pos, size)

As usual, see the wxPython demo for more details.

Capture the PAINT event and use a PaintDC to draw to the dialog:

class MyDialog(wx.Dialog):
def __init__(self, ...):
...
EVT_PAINT(self, self.OnPaint)
def OnPaint(self, event):
dc = wxPaintDC(self)
dc.DrawBitmap(bitmap, ...)
event.Skip()
BTW, questions about wxPython are better asked on the wxPython list:
