canvas = tk.Canvas(root, width=250, height=250)
canvas.pack()
tk_img = ImageTk.PhotoImage(file = FILENAME)
canvas.create_image(125, 125, image=tk_img)
quit_button = tk.Button(root, text = "Quit", command = root.quit, anchor = 'w',
                    width = 10, activebackground = "#33B5E5")
quit_button_window = canvas.create_window(10, 10, anchor='nw', window=quit_button)    
root.mainloop()
