simple tkinter question function call not opening image

[woooee]

Return photo to keep a reference to it, or append to a list, which is mutable. Both are illustrated below.

from tkinter import *
from PIL import ImageTk,Image
 
 
root = Tk()
root.geometry("400x400")
photo_list=[] 
 
def open_image():
    frame = Frame(root,width=200,height=200,bd=5,bg='white')
 
 
    photo = ImageTk.PhotoImage(Image.open('image.jpg'))
    photo_label = Label(image=photo)
    photo_label.pack()
 
    photo_list.append(photo)
    return photo

photo=open_image()
 
root.mainloop()
