# Europeana Italian Scans Dataset

This dataset was created from records of the [Europeana online collection](https://europeana.eu) by selecting scans of Italian historical documents. These documents consist of scans of typed or hand-written paper documents.
Queries are generated with Qwen2b. Attributions to the sources are added in the `attributions` column of each dataset item, and links to the original document in the `links` column.
The `text_description` column contains OCR text extracted from the images using EasyOCR.

Example:

```
{
    'query': 'Quali sono gli insegnamenti che il discorso di Andreotti suggerisce?',
    'image_filename': 'images/446__ASILS_Fondo_Giulio_Andreotti_Discorsi0090.jpg',
    'links': 'https://www.europeana.eu/en/item/446/ASILS_Fondo_Giulio_Andreotti_Discorsi0090',
    'image': <PIL.JpegImagePlugin.JpegImageFile image mode=L size=4118x5683 at 0x11FCD9950>,
    'attributions': '(en) Rome: meeting of engineers of financial administration - https://www.europeana.eu/item/446/ASILS_Fondo_Giulio_Andreotti_Discorsi0090. Giulio Andreotti.
