Your options:
* explicit HTML img tags
- with absolute URL (recommended for better caching)
- with relative URL
* implicitly generated img tags
- use "art.image_1" (in a Python expression context!, requires
that "image_1" is a valid Python name
- use PageTemplate's path expressions: "structure art/image_1"
PageTemplates are recommended for optimal work with designers
and programmes
- numerous other ways, including "dtml-with" (DTML), "restrictedTraverse"
and "TransparentFolder"
