Why Pil does not show my URL photo image in tkinter [duplicate]

This code works:

import tkinter

root = tkinter.Tk()
canvas = tkinter.Canvas(root)
canvas.grid(row = 0, column = 0)
photo = tkinter.PhotoImage(file = './test.gif')
canvas.create_image(0, 0, image=photo)
root.mainloop()

It shows me the image.

Now, this code compiles but it doesn't show me the image, and I don't know why, because it's the same code, in a class:

import tkinter

class Test:
    def __init__(self, master):
        canvas = tkinter.Canvas(master)
        canvas.grid(row = 0, column = 0)
        photo = tkinter.PhotoImage(file = './test.gif')
        canvas.create_image(0, 0, image=photo)

root = tkinter.Tk()
test = Test(root)
root.mainloop()

The variable photo is a local variable which gets garbage collected after the class is instantiated. Save a reference to the photo, for example:

self.photo = tkinter.PhotoImage(...)

If you do a Google search on "tkinter image doesn't display", the first result is this:

Why do my Tkinter images not appear? (The FAQ answer is currently not outdated)

from tkinter import *
from PIL import ImageTk, Image

root = Tk()

def open_img():
    global img
    path = r"C:\.....\\"
    img = ImageTk.PhotoImage(Image.open(path))
    panel = Label(root, image=img)
    panel.pack(side="bottom", fill="both")
but1 = Button(root, text="click to get the image", command=open_img)
but1.pack()
root.mainloop() 

Just add global to the img definition and it will work
