As you know, you cannot load EPS files with the GDI+ image decoders but
there may be another way of getting a thumbnail of an EPS.
The system shell provides a method for Explorer to display a thumbnail using
the IExtractImage method. If your system has a COM object registered that
provides an EPS thumbnail you should be able to get to the image using that
COM object.

explains how to perform thumbnail image extraction from the shell using C#.
