This is my trial for applying View-ViewModel concept in WPF Windows application. I do not have a Model for this sample so omitting that word
This is the XAML code which I used. Here I tried to do text binding with a TextBox and Command binding with a Button.
File 1: Window1.xaml

<Window x:Class="Window1"
[...]

Add your image (I take a png file) to your solution
Use this code:

Assembly myAssembly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();
Stream myStream = myAssembly.GetManifestResourceStream("WpfApplication1.testimage.png");
 
PngBitmapDecoder bd = new PngBitmapDecoder
(myStream, BitmapCreateOptions.PreservePixelFormat, BitmapCacheOption.Default);
Image1.ImageSource = bd.Frames[0];

Name spaces needed are System.Reflection and System.IO.

This program animates a cube in black background. My company logo is used as texture.
Here is the XAML file:

The Composite Application Guidance (from Microsoft patterns & practices) for WPF is designed to help you more easily build enterprise-level Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) client applications. This guidance will help you design and build flexible composite WPF client applications—composite applications use loosely coupled, independently evolvable pieces that work together in the overall application.

We can make a rotate animation with image1.RenderTransformOrigin = new Point(0.5, 0.5); so that we will make the feeling wheel is rotating. Here is the code:

DoubleAnimation da = new DoubleAnimation(360, 0, new Duration(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(3)));
RotateTransform rt = new RotateTransform();
image1.RenderTransform = rt;
image1.RenderTransformOrigin = new Point(0.5, 0.5);
da.RepeatBehavior = RepeatBehavior.Forever;
rt.BeginAnimation(RotateTransform.AngleProperty, da);

da.From = 0;
da.To = 360;
