How do I retrieve photos from iTunes backup without iPhone

I am trying to see/download the photos from my old iPhone backups (6, 8+, etc). They are stored on my computer (screenshot from System Information). I have read to access thru iTunes but I have an M1 laptop now and iTunes is no longer a thing on it. I also only have an iPhone 12 pro and 11 Pro so I can't restore any old devices with the backups. Please help!!!

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.0

Check iCloud, Directly:

Rather than checking the backups. make it easy and see if they reside in iCloud. As long as Photos is still enabled in iCloud on the old devices, then it will be recoverable. Go here: https://www.icloud.com/photos
