An image in a sequence is when there is a group of images that are very similar with only slight variations. A good example is from DAISY with a group of paintings of a decaying castle. Follow this link to view the example.
If you have an image in a sequence:
This can also occur in Children’s Picture Books, and should be treated the same way except the entire image description goes into the single image.
Sometimes you will have images that are grouped together. This is not a collage, a collage is an artistic medium. Grouped images tend to have a single caption for both images.
If you have a group of images, they will be combined into a single image file. This means the Alt-text needs to set up the fact that it is a group of images.
Structure the description as follows:
Two images side-by-side
or Two images on top of each other
whatever you choose make sure to establish how many images there are and what order they are in.On the left
or On the top
or even In the first image, …
Sometimes you will come across the same image repeated more than once in a publication. This can be more common in Children's Books.

Same image from chapter two.
then a simple general description of the image. You can use your first description and just edit it down shorter.Q: In 500 years of Indigenous resistance, at the beginning of the section "Extermination and Assimilation" there is an image of 5 maps that spans across two pages, so the map in the middle is divided in two. In the alt-text of the second map image I've stated that it is a continuation of the previous image" as the wiki instructs. My concern is, in the document, the first part of the map image is placed before the section heading, so the two parts of the image are in two different sections. Is this an issue?
A: Great Question! You can move the first map just below the heading so they are in the same section.
