Posted November 12th, 2007 @ 5:24 pm by Andy Rau

An online tool lets you focus in on da Vinci’s painting The Last Supper to an unbelievable level of detail. (Use the zoom bar in the bottom center to zoom in and out of the painting.) Who needs the physical painting when it’s been digitized so thoroughly?

There’s some good basic info about the painting at Wikipedia if you want to learn more about the painting and the ongoing challenge of preserving it.
