How to display background image from url

I am unable to display background image with css, my research on the web has been fruitless, seemingly I am using the same markup and stylesheet as in stack overflow posts but it is just not working for me.

Can you help me identify the problem?

My HTML:
<div class="img" />


My stylesheet:
.img {
  width: 100px;
  height: 100px;
  background-image: url("https://www.svgrepo.com/show/452180/chrome.svg");
  background-color: red;
}
