Replace String with your URL. and testImage is an outlet of ImageView

// Put Your Image URL
let url:NSURL = NSURL(string : "http://.jpg")!
// It Will turn Into Data
let imageData : NSData = NSData.init(contentsOf: url as URL)!
// Data Will Encode into Base64
let str64 = imageData.base64EncodedData(options: .lineLength64Characters)
// Now Base64 will Decode Here
let data: NSData = NSData(base64Encoded: str64 , options: .ignoreUnknownCharacters)!
// turn  Decoded String into Data
let dataImage = UIImage(data: data as Data)
// pass the data image to image View.:)
testImage.image = dataImage
