In my recent post on Monet at the Grand Palais, I was praising the online gallery in which a large number of Monet’s works have been made viewable on the web in relatively high resolution images.
I say “relatively” because Haltadefinizione, or “HAL9000″ (English version here (http://www.haltadefinizione.com/home.jsp?lingua=en)), an Italian project specializing in high-definition photography, has made available on the web several great masterpieces in what can be considered extreme high resolution.
I wrote in 2007 about their high resolution online image of Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper. That image consisted of 16 billion pixels, at the time reaching the limits of the technology.
This is cool, give it a try.
