Unsupported Image Format

Pygame version 2.6; Python version: 3.12.3

Trying to load a PNG file generates the following error:

File "/home/john/Pygame/Platform_Game/game.py", line 20, in get_background
image = pygame.image.load(os.path.join('assets', 'Background'), name)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
pygame.error: Unsupported image format

The troublesome line of code in bold below.

`import os
