Set the finish of that image as follow:

finish{ambient 1 diffuse 0}

This is my prefered way.

An object with diffuse 0 is not lighted by any light_source in the scene. As a 
result, it won't show any shadow.
An object with ambient 1 will be fully illuminated without any light.

Another way, is to set the window,and the wall in witch it's set, as no_shadow.

Or, you could place that image some distance behind the wall and window, scale 
it a little larger, so that any shadow it receive falls in a non-visible part. 
Use another light outside the room to illuminate it, or use ambient 1.
