How to climb the three folders above in the address description?

The catalog with icons for the buttons lies in the three folders above, when this type is addressed, it does not see the picture: -> ../../../images/newk.png (although I saw two folders above ../../images/newk.png , when moved), and the absolute address also does not see: it works only with a local address (if you put the pictures in the root), I pass the address as a String to create a button icon as a result.
