You likely need to extend `org-babel-scheme--table-or-string' to
understand Image: type.

I do not know much about scheme.

Generally, ob-* libraries try their best to convert native language
types to Elisp. If #<Image: ...> is something that is unambiguously
identified as image file, I do not see why we cannot support it,
converting the #<Image: ...> representation to file link. Especially,
when users request :results file.
