The present disclosure relates to an image processing device, an image processing method, a program, and an image presentation system capable of presenting a more suitable image to the interior of a vehicle.

An image processing unit generates a presentation image to be presented to the interior of a second vehicle that is traveling, on the basis of a vehicle external image obtained by capturing an environment outside a first vehicle that is traveling. The present disclosure can be applied to, for example, a projector type presentation device.
