So far, I've found a way to read paragraphs and tables in word sequentially and iteratively, but I'm stuck with how to read pictures sequentially. I would like to ask you to help me on the basis of the original code to achieve how the sequence of iteration word pictures? Here is my current code

from docx.document import Document as _Document
from docx.oxml.text.paragraph import CT_P
from docx.oxml.table import CT_Tbl
from docx.table import _Cell, Table, _Row
from docx.text.paragraph import Paragraph
import docx
path = './test.docx'
doc = docx.Document(path)
def iter_block_items(parent):
    if isinstance(parent, _Document):
        parent_elm = parent.element.body
    elif isinstance(parent, _Cell):
        parent_elm = parent._tc
    elif isinstance(parent, _Row):
        parent_elm = parent._tr
    else:
        raise ValueError("something's not right")
    for child in parent_elm.iterchildren():
        if isinstance(child, CT_P):
            yield Paragraph(child, parent)
        elif isinstance(child, CT_Tbl):
            yield Table(child, parent)
for block in iter_block_items(doc):
    # read Paragraph
    if isinstance(block, Paragraph):
        print(block.text)
    # read table
    elif isinstance(block, Table):
        print(block.style.name)
You want to modify iter_block_items such that the iteration body handles the case of a picture: currently it only handles (and yields) paragraphs and tables.
I don't really know the format, but you might want docx.oxml.shape.CT_Picture for the "flag type". Browsing through its documentation, python-docx doesn't seem to have a picture version of the Table or Paragraph wrappers though.
