Pillow is Python Imaging Library that is free and open-source an additional library for the Python programming language that adds support for opening, manipulating, and saving in a variety of extension.

Let’s get started

The most important class in the Python Imaging Library is the Image class, defined in the module with the same name.

We use open ( ) to open image in our local directory as shown below;

>>> from PIL import Image >>> sample = Image.open('sample.jpg')

That’s simple, you have already read an image with pillow, you can now do something image processing with it, You can also check the type of the image we just loaded;
