Connect Thunderbolt 2 Cinema Display to 2019 27" iMac

I have a 27" Thunderbolt Cinema Display (A1407) - Which I believe is thunderbolt 2 (uploading pics for community to confirm). **Ports showing are on the back of this Cinema Display, not the iMac)

I've read through previous posts and online chatted with apple, but still confused (sorry...noob here).

What exactly do I need in order to connect this cinema display to my 2019 iMac which only has thunderbolt 3 (usb-c) ports on it?

Thanks for any help!

Thanks Malcom,

I did see that. But also saw this in the description: "This adapter does not support DisplayPort displays like the Apple LED Cinema Display"

So I guess I wanted to confirm my display was indeed an Apple Thunderbolt Display.

Thanks!

Yes, you display's plug has a lightning bolt icon that shows it's Thunderbolt.
