Python/Django - Get value of a ManyToManyField in a for tag

I can't get the image related value when I'm using {% for %} with the class Article. I tried with select_related, but I don't know how to define image to be correctly in displayed in the src="" attribute of my <img /> tag

Is there a clean way to make appear as I want?

models.py

    class Image(models.Model):
        gallery = models.ManyToManyField(Gallery)
        name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
        image = models.ImageField(upload_to='static/images/gallery')
        def __str__(self):
            return self.name

    class Article(models.Model):
        section = models.ForeignKey(Menu)
        title = models.CharField(max_length=100)
        text = models.TextField()
        type = models.ForeignKey(Type)
        image = models.ManyToManyField(Image)
        def __str__(self):
            return self.title

views.py

def index(request):
    slider = Article.objects.all()
    images = Image.objects.all()
    return render(request, 'cms/index.html', locals())

template

{% for i in slider %}
<li>
    <img src="{{i.image}}" alt="{{i.title}}"/>
    <h2>{{i.title}}</h2>
    <p>{{i.text}}, {{i.image_url}}</p>
</li>
{% endfor %}

You have to use 2 forloop for displaying images in manytomany table.

{% for i in slider %}
<li>
    {% for im in i.image.all %}
    <img src="{{im.image.url}}" alt="{{im.name}}"/>
    {% endfor %}
    <h2>{{i.title}}</h2>
    <p>{{i.text}}, {{i.image_url}}</p>
</li>
{% endfor %}

Article.image is a ManyToMany field. Which image You want to display? First?

<img src="{{i.image.all.0.image.url}}" alt="{{i.title}}"/>

All?

{% for im in i.image.all %}
<img src="{{im.image.url}}" alt="{{im.name}}"/>
{% endfor %}
