Answer 1

Chrome probably doesn't handle file system paths (or at least not without using file://). Even if this did work, that link would only work on your local machine as the person browsing your website wouldn't have an image at that location.

You should be using URLs for your resources (i.e. images), not file paths.

Answer 2

Have you tried using file:// to prefix your image local path?
