Last year I was one of the 350,000 people who visited Milan’s Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie and one of our ‘must sees’ was Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper.I wish we could have lingered longer but the crowds were pressing in behind us.
Now a 16 billion pixel image of Leonardo da Vinci's Last Supper has been posted on the internet, giving art lovers a detailed view of the 15th Century work.
The image is 1,600 times more detailed than those taken with a typical 10 million pixel digital camera.
People will be able to see segments as though just centimetres away and examine otherwise unavailable details.
