If you haven't already seen The Last Supper in Detail, check it out: a 16 billion pixel (count 'em) rendering of Leonardo's great work. You can get closer to it here than you can in real life. It's fabulous.

It reminds me of the British Library's equally gorgeous and democratising Turning The Pages project, which makes many of the Library's greatest treasures available online. Also well worth a look.
