Button control template not working

i am written the following xaml code:

    <Window x:Class="ImageScrollDemo.View.TestWindow"
        xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
        xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
        Title="TestWindow" Height="300" Width="300">
    <Window.Resources>
        <Style x:Key="NextImageButtonStyle" TargetType="Button">
            <Setter Property="Template">
                <Setter.Value>
                    <ControlTemplate TargetType="Button">
                        <Image Source="..\Images\#next.png" RenderOptions.BitmapScalingMode="HighQuality" />
                    </ControlTemplate>
                </Setter.Value>
            </Setter>
        </Style>
    </Window.Resources>
    <Grid>
        <Button Style="{DynamicResource NextImageButtonStyle}" />
    </Grid>
</Window>

The window is rendered blank. i don't understand why.

One thing to note: Try specifying TargetType using Type syntax

<Style x:Key="NextImageButtonStyle" TargetType="{x:Type Button}">

Reference: MSDN Style.TargetType Property

Using the key to refer to the resource may be enough, but an incorrect TargetType could interfere.

<Image Source="..\Images\#next.png" ... />

Check the file name for the image and verify it does actually contain a # character.

Also, try using a static resource:

<Button Style="{StaticResource NextImageButtonStyle}" />
