How to get the colour of a applet viewer pixel in Java?

I have drawn any picture, used Graphics 2D. How do I get the colour of a pixel at x, y? getPixelColor don't work, because this method get pixel from screen, not applet viewer coordinates.

2. Draw the image to the Graphics2D .
3. To get the color of any pixel, call BufferedImage.getRGB(x,y) or variants (check the docs.).
