Collecting objects according to type in folders is not
very Zope friendly. It is much better to group all objects
required for a (sub-)application (or task) together in a folder:

  organisation according to task rather than according to type!

That said, you can use:

     <dtml-with SUBDIRECTORY>
       <dtml-var image>
     </dtml-with>
