Holy shit, the Rijksmuseum used a 100MP Hasselblad camera to take almost eight and a half THOUSAND photos of the whole of Rembrandt's The Night Watch, for a total image size of 717 GIGAPIXELS.

It's on their website as a zoomable image and you can zoom in so far you can see the individual cracks in the paint: https://www.rijksmuseum.nl/en/stories/operation-night-watch/story/ultra-high-resolution-photo

Wow, that photo is amazing.
And it reinforces the belief that you shouldn't waste your time taking pictures in a museum, just enjoy the art. There are always far better photos on the Internet. -

@dontreportme @virtualwolf Indeed. Casual photos are for unique situations or moments. Publicly available stuff will always be professionally photographed by someone with a, well, professional camera.
