How to introduce static value in View - C# MVC 3

In my main view i have following:

<body style="background-image: url(../Content/themes/base/images/sos.png)">

Instead of using string url here i want admin to have access to this url by using AdminModel. Something like this:

<body style="background-image: @AdminModel.BackgroundImage>

My AdminModel currently look like this:

public class AdminModel
    {
        public int DateId { get; set; }
        public DateTime Date { get; set; }
        public string BackgroundPath { get; set; }
    }

Where DateId and Date are fields of a DateTime table. I dont want to add BackgroundPath as a table field because it will only carry one value. So is there a better way to achieve this? So that admin can change background url when they want to?

You will have to use something very similar to this:

<body style="background-image: url(@(AdminModel.BackgroundImage))">

On the other hand, you might want to use better (subjective) solution presented here: Action Image MVC3 Razor

Hope this helps
