@Somos Of course I agree with you that working with Graphics objects is best. However, if you have got into the position of having RawBoxs perhaps because the image was never created in Mathematica what should you do? May I also point out that if you can convert to an Image then there is ImageRotate and ImageResize etc that enables you to to the same operation on images as you can on Graphics..

You write "operations like rotating and resizing" which is exactly what Graphics objects are capable of but not bitmapped Image objects. I strongly advise to stay away from bitmaps as long as possible and only for rasterization for viewing pusposes.

When you converted into a bitmap you lost resolution independent Graphics quality. You can't recover Graphics object from that. At most, you may convert your RawBoxes into an Image object
