why doesn't the ImageIcon appear in the JscrollPanel?

I wrote a simple Swing program. When the click a button and select a jpg
file, I want to show this picture in the JScollPanel, but it doesn't
appear. The source is here:
private void jButton3ActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {    
                                    
    if(evt.getSource() == this.jButton3) {
        JFileChooser chooser = new JFileChooser();
        chooser.setFileSelectionMode(JFileChooser.FILES_ONLY);
        FileNameExtensionFilter filter = new FileNameExtensionFilter("JPG
& GIF Images", "jpg", "gif");
        chooser.setFileFilter(filter);
        int returnVal = chooser.showOpenDialog(this);
        if(returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {
           
this.jTextField4.setText(chooser.getSelectedFile().getAbsolutePath());
            try{
                this.jScrollPane2.add(new ImagePanel(1,
chooser.getSelectedFile()));
            } catch(Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
            
        }
    }
}
