The Image with text split section displays two images side by side with overlay text. It's great to show off two angles of the same product, or introduce a new collection.
The left side displays a Feature image with a caption and the right side displays a large Detail image.

STEPS
In your theme editor (Customize):

See our article for image recommendations for Lorenza to learn more.
(Optional.) Select or paste a URL to the Link field.
When a customer clicks on the left image, it takes them to this link.
(Optional.) Add Caption text to display next to the feature image.
Change the Feature side Background color and Text color.
We recommend using WebAIM's contrast checker when matching colors to make sure your text is clear and readable for everyone.
(Optional.) Click the Background gradient option to add a color overlay that fades across a range of hues.
You can choose the style, angle, position, and opacity of the gradient. See Shopify's color gradient guide ↗ to learn more.
Use the Text alignment to display the Caption above or below the image with Left, Right or Center aligned text.
Choose from Top left, Top center, Top right, Bottom left, Bottom center, or Bottom right.
This text is always either above or below the left image.
Click Save.
Add detail image
The Detail image displays across the entire right side of the section. Add text to overlay the image and turn the image into a link. It's great for showing off a product feature or a detail.
STEPS
In your theme editor (Customize):
Click on the Image with text section to open the section settings.
Under Detail, click Select image to upload and select an image file.
There are no required images dimensions. We recommend images that are square (1:1) or landscape (3:2) (wider than tall) with a minimum width of 2500px for optimal quality across all devices.
(Optional.) Add a short sentence or two to the Image text overlay to display overtop the image.
If you added text, choose a Text overlay color so the text is more clearly visible on your image.
Use the Text alignment to display the Overlay text above or below the image with Left, Right or Center aligned text.
Choose from Top left, Top center, Top right, Bottom left, Bottom center, or Bottom right.
This text either displays over the top or bottom edge of the image.
Use the Max width of text slider to control the maximum width of the headings.
Use this setting to create a clean visual shape for your text and avoid unwanted line breaks.
Make sure your text is readable by adjusting the Gradient overlay color and Gradient overlay length.
Click Save.
