Background in html

Hii guys I’m new to the community

So I am currently trying to make an html website using pycharm I did most of it now but I want to add a background picture or colour.
Does anyone know the code for it ?

I tried

<img src='background.jpeg'>

And

<style> </style>

And I saved the picture on my pc but it didn’t work

    You mean something like below?

    <!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style2.css"> <!-- include the path to the style2.css if it's not in the same folder-->
    <title>Document</title>
</head>
<body>
    <h1>Something...</h1>
</body>
</html>

    and in your style2.css

    body{
    background-image: url('images/somepicture.jpeg'); /*assuming you have saved the picture in the images folder */
    background-size: cover;
}

    Is your picture also in the root-folder, where your index.html lies?
    Or you do it with Internal-Styles

    <!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
body {background-color: powderblue;
      background-image: url('images/somepicture.png');} /* Path to your picture */
h1   {color: blue;}
p    {color: red;}
</style>
</head>
<body>

<h1>This is a heading</h1>
<p>This is a paragraph.</p>

</body>
</html>
