Python PIL. Image does not open

Below is my code for opening an image:

import Image

filename = "Golden-Gauranga.png"
image = Image.open(filename, "r")
image.show()

However, the image does not open. Nothing happens.

For now, I am opening the image file using the below code: 

import os
os.system("gvfs-open today")

I am on an Ubuntu system and today is the name of the image file.

You could try using cv2 and pyplot instead of Image. First you need to install OpenCV and the other modules, and then change your code to something like 

import cv2
import numpy
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
filename = "Golden-Gauranga.png"
im = cv2.imread(filename, -1)
imarray = numpy.array(im)
plt.imshow(imarray)
plt.show
