Oh wow, that is so cool. I thought I was at max zoom, normal blurry tiles. Then BOOM! It came into focus and I saw tiny cracks, smallest areas of paint, no loss

Oh wow, that is so cool. I thought I was at max zoom, normal blurry tiles. Then BOOM! It came into focus and I saw tiny cracks, smallest areas of paint, no loss of clarity. It's like you're standing right up next to it. That's incredible! Wow, all I can say. That's insane, that is totally insane!
I would love if there were a depthmask or something and a synthetic "keylight" feature you could drag around to really get an idea of the textures, the peaks and valleys. I guess we'll have that in a future version. This is incredible.
- tigerlily 2y agoYeah I noticed this too, incredible, I was thinking "how did they do this?". It's zoom like it should be.
- bitexploder 2y agoEnhance, but actually :)
- jonasdegendt 2y agoAnother similar scan is the Ghent altarpiece[0], and you get to compare the pieces before and after a restoration. [0] https://closertovaneyck.kikirpa.be/ghentaltarpiece/#home https://closertovaneyck.kikirpa.be/ghentaltarpiece/#home
- shrx 2y agoI wonder why did they change the lamb's head features, it looks worse (the expression) after the restoration IMO and such a significant alteration is not acceptable IMO.
- Wojtkie 2y agoIt actually seems like they restored it to its original style. It was painted over to make the sheep look more sheep-like. The "new" restored version is actually how the Van Eycks painted it.[0] [0]: https://www.bbc.com/culture/article/20200201-is-this-the-first-view-of-god-the-father-in-art https://www.bbc.com/culture/article/20200201-is-this-the-fir...
- Guillaume86 2y agoWould love a VR version with the features you mentionned, looking at details with my nose on it...
