Advice on connecting an old Dell PC (Dimension 5150) to a marginally less old Apple monitor.

My old Dell PC hasn’t been used for several years and all cables have vanished in a house move. I also disposed of the old Dell monitor it used to be linked to.

I want to see if I can boot it up to rescue any pics/docs off the hard drive prior to disposal, but my only monitor is an Apple.

I’m very un-savvy with this stuff, it took me three tries to buy the right stuff to connect my work laptop to the old Dell monitor during lockdown, so I’m hoping someone can advise me what I need to get.

I’ve attached pictures of the monitor back and front and available connectors on the (also old) monitor.
