python flask display image on a html page [duplicate]

I have created people_photo in static folder and placed an image named shovon.jpg. From the application.py I passed the image as variable to template and showed it using img tag in the template.

In application.py:

from flask import Flask, render_template
import os

PEOPLE_FOLDER = os.path.join('static', 'people_photo')

app = Flask(__name__)
app.config['UPLOAD_FOLDER'] = PEOPLE_FOLDER

@app.route("https://stackoverflow.com/")
@app.route('/index')
def show_index():
    full_filename = os.path.join(app.config['UPLOAD_FOLDER'], 'shovon.jpg')
    return render_template("index.html", user_image = full_filename)

In index.html:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>Index</title>
</head>
<body>
    <img src="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46785507/{{ user_image }}" alt="User Image">
</body>
</html>

Output:
