Python - how to refresh the Gtk.Image to get the latest image frame from same URL?

How to auto refresh the Gtk.Image to get new frames from that same URL? The image now.jpeg is 1 frame per second, when loading the Python script, it only show first frame not the updated images.

import os
import urllib2
from gi.repository import Gtk
from gi.repository.GdkPixbuf import Pixbuf

def quit_event(widget, event):
    os.remove(imgname)
    Gtk.main_quit()

imgname = 'now.jpeg'
url = 'http://192.168.1.11/'+imgname

response = urllib2.urlopen(url)
with open(imgname, 'wb') as img:
    img.write(response.read())

image = Gtk.Image()
pb = Pixbuf.new_from_file(imgname)
image.set_from_pixbuf(pb)

window = Gtk.Window()
window.connect('delete-event', quit_event)
window.add(image)
window.show_all()

Gtk.main()
