How in laravel to access a file from a controller through a path located in a folder?

Question

Laravel

The file /storage/private/1.jpeg (there is a symlink. In nginx I cut off viewing private)
(via a relative path ala ../ ) does not find

It turned out to be accessed only if I put it in public in this way:

$filename =  '1.jpeg';;
$handle = fopen($filename, "rb");
$contents = fread($handle, filesize($filename));
fclose($handle);
header("content-type: image/jpeg");
echo $contents;
