Creates a new #GtkImage displaying the file filename. If the file
isn’t found or can’t be loaded, the resulting #GtkImage will
display a “broken image” icon. This function never returns null,
it always returns a valid #GtkImage widget.
If the file contains an animation, the image will contain an
animation.

If you need to detect failures to load the file, use gdkpixbuf.pixbuf.Pixbuf.newFromFile to load the file yourself, then create the #GtkImage from the pixbuf. (Or for animations, use gdkpixbuf.pixbuf_animation.PixbufAnimation.newFromFile).
The storage type (gtk.image.Image.getStorageType) of the returned image is not defined, it will be whatever is appropriate for displaying the file.
