This is the wrong place to ask that question.  GCC is a compiler.  It
does not provide any library for working with images.  Libstdc++ is
GCC's version of the C++ library as described in the C++ language
standard.  The C++ language standard does not define any image
processing libraries, so GCC does not include any.

There are various libraries around for images.  E.g., ImageMagick has a
C++ API.  I don't personally have any experience with any of these
libraries and I can't recommend one.
