problem with QGraphicsPixmapItem

[JustJ]

Hello everyone,
I am trying to display an image using QGraphicsView but all I get is a blank window.
Here is the code:

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QApplication a(argc, argv)
    QGraphicsView view;
    QGraphicsScene* scene = new QGraphicsScene(QRect(0, 0, 600, 400));
    QPixmap Pix("king.png");
    //does not work either
    //QGraphicsPixmapItem *item1 = scene->addPixmap(Pix);
    QGraphicsPixmapItem *item = new QGraphicsPixmapItem(Pix);
    scene->addItem(item);
    view.setScene(scene);
    view.show();
    return a.exec();
}

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QApplication a(argc, argv)
    QGraphicsView view;
    QGraphicsScene* scene = new QGraphicsScene(QRect(0, 0, 600, 400));
    QPixmap Pix("king.png");
    //does not work either
    //QGraphicsPixmapItem *item1 = scene->addPixmap(Pix);
    QGraphicsPixmapItem *item = new QGraphicsPixmapItem(Pix);
    scene->addItem(item);
    view.setScene(scene);
    view.show();
    return a.exec();
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

I think that I'm missing something obvious, but still I'm unable to find it on my own.
Any suggestions?

solved.
Relative path does not work for me. Had to use absolute path.

QPixmap Pix("/home/justas/graphics_view_test/king.png");

QPixmap Pix("/home/justas/graphics_view_test/king.png");

Relative paths depend on the current working directory of the application.

Cheers,
