Answer 1

I found that this is working

# source: http://nbviewer.ipython.org/gist/deeplook/5162445
from io import BytesIO

from IPython import display
from PIL import Image


def display_pil_image(im):
   """Displayhook function for PIL Images, rendered as PNG."""

   b = BytesIO()
   im.save(b, format='png')
   data = b.getvalue()

   ip_img = display.Image(data=data, format='png', embed=True)
   return ip_img._repr_png_()


# register display func with PNG formatter:
png_formatter = get_ipython().display_formatter.formatters['image/png']
dpi = png_formatter.for_type(Image.Image, display_pil_image)

After this I can just do:

pil_im

But this must be last line in cell, with no print after it
