You can use IPython's Module: display to load the image. You can read more from the Doc.

from IPython.display import Image

As OP's requirement is to use PIL, if you want to show inline image, you can use matplotlib.pyplot.imshow with numpy.asarray like this too:

from matplotlib.pyplot import imshow
import numpy as np
from PIL import Image

%matplotlib inline
pil_im = Image.open('data/empire.jpg', 'r')
imshow(np.asarray(pil_im))

If you only require a preview rather than an inline, you may just use show like this:

pil_im = Image.open('data/empire.jpg', 'r')
pil_im.show()
