This image is of a two-page spread from what appears to be an old book or manuscript. On these pages, there are two large woodcut prints that depict panoramic views of Venice, Italy.

The left page lists the name "VENICE" at the bottom, signaling that this particular woodcut is of Venice. The text on the pages is likely to describe the city or provide information related to the illustrations, but due to the old script and language, it may not be easily readable to modern readers without experience in historical languages or scripts. The right-hand page does not have a labelled illustration but likely continues the subject matter of the left-hand page. The book clearly has some age to it, evidenced by the discoloration and wear, as well as the style of the printed text and woodcuts.
