url() must be given a url, not a file path. You need to put the image somewhere that is being served by apache, or by the development server (usually a subdirectory of 'media/' or similar) and then use the corresponding url. For example, when running the devolopment server in /home/me/djprojects/proj1 where I have my MEDIA_ROOT set to '/home/me/djprojects/proj1/site_media/' and my MEDIA_URL set to '/site_media/', and the image has be moved or copied to be /home/me/djprojects/proj1/site_media/images/foo.jpg then the right thing to put in the css is url(/site_media/images/foo.jpg) - note that no quotes are used either.
