JavaFX ImageView Transition - javafx

Question

I'm trying to create image gallery and use some image animations. Problem is with ImageView. I would like to play() RotateTransition from some method and call this method any time but it's not working at all. There should be some issue with threads but even if it is called from new thread nothing is happening. Is there any solution how to work with ImageView and Transitions generally?
public class ImageGallery extends ImageView{
RotateTransition rt;
public ImageGallery() {
setImage(new Image("/img/01.jpg"));
setPreserveRatio(true);
rt = new RotateTransition(Duration.millis(800), this);
rt.setByAngle(90);
//this works but not what I need
//fitWidthProperty().addListener(e -> rt.play());
}
public void rotateRight(){
rt.play(); //nothing
//run later is not working too
//Platform.runLater(new ViewTransition(this));
}
}
Thanks

As per user comments in the question, adding a MCVE
Main.java
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.geometry.Pos;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.layout.VBox;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class Main extends Application {
#Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception {
ImageGallery gallery = new ImageGallery();
VBox box= new VBox(gallery);
box.setAlignment(Pos.CENTER);
Scene scene = new Scene(box, 400, 400);
primaryStage.setScene(scene);
primaryStage.show();
gallery.rotateRight();
}
public static void main(String[] args){
launch(args);
}
}
ImageGallery.java
import javafx.animation.RotateTransition;
import javafx.scene.image.Image;
import javafx.scene.image.ImageView;
import javafx.util.Duration;
public class ImageGallery extends ImageView{
RotateTransition rt;
public ImageGallery() {
setImage(new Image("http://jaxenter.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/javafx.1.png"));
setPreserveRatio(true);
rt = new RotateTransition(Duration.millis(800), this);
rt.setByAngle(90);
}
public void rotateRight(){
rt.play();
}
}
