This solution

1. Downloads an image from server.
2. Shows downloading progress.
3. After download, the image is saved to device storage.

Code:

import 'package:http/http.dart' as http;

class _MyPageState extends State<MyPage> {
  int _total = 0, _received = 0;
  late http.StreamedResponse _response;
  File? _image;
  final List<int> _bytes = [];

  Future<void> _downloadImage() async {
    _response = await http.Client()
        .send(http.Request('GET', Uri.parse('https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/ff/Pizigani_1367_Chart_10MB.jpg')));
    _total = _response.contentLength ?? 0;

    _response.stream.listen((value) {
      setState(() {
        _bytes.addAll(value);
        _received += value.length;
      });
    }).onDone(() async {
      final file = File('${(await getApplicationDocumentsDirectory()).path}/image.png');
      await file.writeAsBytes(_bytes);
      setState(() {
        _image = file;
      });
    });
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      floatingActionButton: FloatingActionButton.extended(
        label: Text('${_received ~/ 1024}/${_total ~/ 1024} KB'),
        icon: Icon(Icons.file_download),
        onPressed: _downloadImage,
      ),
      body: Padding(
        padding: const EdgeInsets.all(20.0),
        child: Center(
          child: SizedBox.fromSize(
            size: Size(400, 300),
            child: _image == null ? Placeholder() : Image.file(_image!, fit: BoxFit.fill),
          ),
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}
