The easiest way to do this is a simple ListView from Django’s generic class-based views.

First, string up your views.py:

from django.views.generic import ListView

class ProductListView(ListView):

    model = Product
    template_name = 'product/list_view.html' # Edit this to whatever your template is.

Remember to edit your urls.py:

from .views import ProductListView

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    ...
    url(r'^product/$', ProductListView.as_view(), name='list'), # Edit url path and name as desired
    ...
)

Then, make your template:

<div class="jumbotron">
    <ul>
    {% for product in products %}
        <li>{{ product.name }}: {{ product.description }} <img src="{{ product.image.url }}" >
    {% endfor %}
    </ul>
</div>

This is a very basic template which you’ll obviously want to customize. For each Product in your database, it will display the name, description, and the image. You can customize your fields as you desire.

Other potential issues:

1) Be sure you provide the correct path to your template in your ListView.

2) Set up your MEDIA_URL and other media settings to allow your Product image to display.

3) Look at other customization options in ListView (see documentation here.)
