You need a projection in your groq query: https://www.sanity.io/docs/presenting-images#BnS1mFRw

It's confusing when you first encounter it but, inside of a document an image field is actually a reference to an asset in your Content Lake. When you're querying for it, you need to expand that asset. For example:
<image-field> {
  ...,
  asset->
}
