David who is so good at FE programming will probably come out with a detailed answer, but in case, this does the job: SetOptions[EvaluationNotebook[], DockedCells -> Cell[BoxData[ToBoxes[rose]], TextAlignment -> Center]] The answer lies in what Cell accepts as content (see documentation). There might be a simpler way using the GraphicsData["type",data] as cell content, but a 3min search in the documentation gave no info about what "type" should be for the rose image... Guessing and using Graphics["Raster",rose] gives a grey box... But the BoxData[ToBoxes[...]] way does the job.
