We have not landed a probe on any of Jupiter's moons, so there wouldn't be any actual photos. You're going to have to be content with an artist's vision of it.
Thats sad. What about Saturn ? :D
A probe has landed on Titan and taken pictures, but the sky is so foggy on Titan that you can't really see Saturn.
Huygens was looking downwards because questions about the surface were more important. see eg: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huygens_(spacecraft)#Findings
Ironically, we did send a "lander" into Jupiter's atmosphere.
But it didn't have a camera... :-(

As others pointed we never landed probes in any of the Jovian moons. The closest thing that we have is Juno's pictures from when it got less than 400 Km from Europa's surface. Galileo made a slightly closer flyby in 2000 but the cameras were pointing to the surface it seems.
Nothing has landed on the moons, but I think the Cassini pictures of Io and Europa during its flyby would be quite close
