Wow, that is an amazing resolution. It would be interesting to create such image every year, and see the changes over time (if any).
I imagine the paints were selected intentionally with this in mind, as the cracking where it exists seems to enhance the painting more than take away (dark background, hats, etc) while lighter colors that should not be cracked, are indeed less so (skin, armor).
That said, this image is amazing, and lets you see a lot more detail than you can easily manage at the museum.

Whilst you are there, please note there is rather a lot more to see than the one picture. The architecture is worth noting too. My overriding impression of the piccies on display is: "sumptuous". That's probably not in the fine arts's lexicon of superlatives but my personal experience.
The model boaty exhibition is not as jarring as it might sound, alongside some very serious artwork exhibitions and is great fun. It doesn't seem to really belong there at first blush but I do understand that naval prowess is rather important to the Netherlander psyche, so perhaps that legitimises it. It does give you a bit of relief after having rather a lot of important art thrown at you.
All in all, I cannot recommend the Rijks' highly enough. If you go anywhere near the Low Countries, then slap it on your itinerary. The coffee is quite reasonable in the entrance cafe, too.
You can read up on all the details on the Rijksmuseum's site dedicated to the nightwatch. https://www.rijksmuseum.nl/en/whats-on/exhibitions/operation...
edit: reading the link in the GP closer, they seem to refer to the full imagine, but it looks like they extracted the drawing underneath the painting. So I'd guess something must be from outside the visible spectrum.
Or, I'm thinking, it's often really interesting to see the 3D texture of a painting -- is that ever something desired to be recorded? For example, with impressionist / pointillist paintings I've seen in person, looking at the canvas from a very low angle is even more interesting to be able to see the brush strokes than seeing it directly face-on.
I wonder if it has a bit to do with it being 3D too, where the edges of paint strokes might catch the light a bit differently than under a scanner.
Particularly true about the Sistine Chapel. This virtual view is outstanding, but can't possibly come anything close to seeing it in person. https://www.vatican.va/various/cappelle/sistina_vr/index.htm...
Such good detail! Wow!
A couple of years ago I did a trip to Belgium and France. Saw all of the sights, loads of museums, and did a tonne of wandering. It was a great time, but was overwhelming. I came home and maybe a week later we were browsing YouTube on the TV and came across a channel that just walks around neighbourhoods of Japan (e.g. Shibuya, Tokyo, among others. The channel is Virtual Japan). A couple of hours of walking a stabilized camera through the streets of a Japanese city. My son came in and watched with me while we looked at storefronts, read restaurant menus, walked through malls, virtually participated in pedestrian scrambles, etc). The weirdest thing is that days later my "trip" to Japan felt much more real than my trip to Belgium and France (or any prior trip I'd ever taken). Absent all of the worries and hustle and overwhelming inputs, somehow this completely not real experience felt much more real, and to this day I feel like I've been to Japan, while so many other countries that I've physically been to and experienced for weeks seem like almost a dream. It really was a fascinating experience for me.
It made me wonder if there is a business in on-demand telepresence for this sort of virtual travel. "Uber" someone technologically enabled to walk around an area, look at things you want and follow directions. Add some dystopian elements to it and soon they're getting in fights at your request.

Just seeing something created so long ago in detail is moving.
Do you think they should have just used stereo cameras in the first place?
With the BDRF you would be able to show the painting as it would appear under any lighting condition and any viewing angle. This would make the painting appear much more realistic in a VR rendering, for example. The current stitched photo assumes uniform lighting and a straight-on view, and if you simply mapped it to a texture on a plane in a 3D environment it would look flat and lifeless.
Here's the 44.8 gigapixel image from the museum as comparison : https://www.rijksmuseum.nl/en/stories/operation-night-watch/...
Having seen so many jpegs and pictures in books of his works, it did not convey or describe this at all!
I passed one in a gallery one time (not looking for one) and the sheen from the lights reflecting totally changed everything in a more amazing way!
Having said that, before visiting the Sistine Chapel, I had indeed studied the imagery on my computer, poring over many of the details ahead of time. I knew that giving my brain some time to ingest, digest, and comprehend the enormity of what I was about to see would be beneficial. And I suppose in much the same way you studied the streets of a Japanese city, I had a similar experience with the Sistine Chapel.
And perhaps here's my somewhat contrarian point to your contrarian point... :-) Seeing it in person lit up the right side of my brain whereas the virtual tour on the computer was more of a left-brained experience. Standing in the same room Michaelangelo stood (and lay on his back) for four years was indescribable. The light that bounced off that ceiling and into my eyes was different than the light emitted from my computer's LCD monitor. Visually exploring it with my 12-year-old daughter and sharing it through her eyes was great. It was a fantastic experience, one I will always treasure. I hope to see it again someday.

They have weeks off of work and expect you to as well. They don't save up for 5 day trips across 3 day weekends to rush rush rush. They* just dip out and live in the different place for a while, take classes, get to know locals, etc. (*not everywhere has this privilege, but it is very common)
I’m never going back to the other way I just hang out with richer Americans. More people have been doing something equivalent over the last year, they're usually also richer Americans just still career focused as well, compared to trust funders.

Makes me think I should look it up more, because I absolutely did not.
Some parts were crowded, other parts were not, I enjoyed the art but hmmm. To me the Swiss Guard tradition was more interesting and fascinating, and some of the graves had fascinating designs on them.
If you walk a couple buildings over from the Night Watch, you get a whole museum dedicated to me droog, Vincent van. And Van Goghs are so highly textured with impasto that they are far more radiant, more life-like, in person.
That said the quality of museum experience is important. If you get rushed through the queue to see the Mona Lisa for fifteen seconds (and it’s pretty small), you’ll probably enjoy a print more.
I'm not saying anyone should agree with me. Only that I don't find it shocking if some people say the Sistine Chapel didn't trigger any strong lasting memories.

Fun fact: the Night Watch is an inaccurate title. The title is actually Militia Company of District II under the Command of Captain Frans Banninck Cocq or The Shooting Company of Frans Banning Cocq and Willem van Ruytenburch. It’s known as the Night Watch because of dirt and varnish—the varnish yellows over time. This changed after extensive restoration. Also, the painting has been vandalized several times. In one unfortunate event in the ‘70s a person took a knife to it.
For more on craquelure see: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craquelure.
(Edited to clarify that varnish yellows over time)
There is a song by artist "Ayreon" called "The Shooting Company of Captain Frans B. Cocq" [1].
It is part of a concept album that describes the first person experience of the last human on mars that experiences artificial "dreams" induced by a machine traveling through history.
To quote Wikipedia [2] regarding the title of the painting as context:
> Militia Company of District II under the Command of Captain Frans Banninck Cocq, also known as The Shooting Company of Frans Banning Cocq and Willem van Ruytenburch, but commonly referred to as The Night Watch (Dutch: De Nachtwacht), is a 1642 painting by Rembrandt van Rijn.

Mona Lisa? Good luck even looking at it if you're short, unless you want to be stuck with your face in someone's armpit while they are taking a selfie.
Lol this is not very common at all. You thinking that's common tells me you don't actually know how normal people from European countries actually live. Might be helpful to actually meet these "locals" that you talk about.
The Sistine Chapel experience, for instance, aside from being just a mass of people being shuffled through one of the largest tourist draws in the world, was on a day that started with incidentally seeing Pope JP2 give an address, and ended with seeing the Dalai Lama at Tivoli when going there for a dinner (two spiritual leaders in one day! Yet I remain an agnostic). In the end the Chapel got filed away as "neat some stuff painted on a ceiling". That is an extreme example, but for my "a 100 year old is historic" North American sensibilities, virtually everything in places like Belgium, France and Italy is overwhelming, from the weird little waffle shop in Ypres to the sound of bells, the stones on the street, etc, everything just becomes an onslaught of overwhelming experience.
Your right about the mono Lisa. When I went 1 year before the pandemic you couldn’t get close. and it was the only painting in its own room. Luckily that museum has no shortages of good paintings.
There are a couple of VanGoghs at the Rodin museum in France which are pretty amazing and not to busy.
Quite a lot of fine art in Venice isn't in crowded museums; some of it's in little churches, away from the crowds, and some is in smaller private museums, away from the day-tripper trail.
I've never been to Florence. I hear that's overwhelming.
Side note on going to the Louvre. I went last summer and, thanks to Covid, had to reserve my (free --- thanks EU!) spot (which I did only a few hours before). As a result, getting into the museum was very quick. Surely, this had to do with the reduced number of people in Paris, too, but I now think that entrance by reservation is a pretty good system generally for such popular spots.
They should have titled this installation Rambrandt
I'll, erm, show myself out.
The stitched and registered images, each exceeding 6 gigapixels, were then visualized using the “curtain viewer”, an internet-based image viewing technology developed by Erdmann for the Bosch research and conservation project.
For this high resolution photography the museum faced several challenges. For the overall images of these large paintings, a total of 242 images were required. This amounts to approximately 70 Gb per painting per imaging modality. The maximum storage capacity of the Rijksmuseum’s Digital Asset Management (DAM) software is currently only 2 Gb per file.
It was also an enormous undertaking to stitch such a large number of composite images and register them for use in the curtain viewers, enabling the conservators to fluidly switch from an overall image to the micro level and back using only the mouse wheel.

It uses hundreds polarized LED lights and cameras, plus lots of image processing, to separate the lighting effects of specular reflectance (glossy shine) from subsurface scattering (glowing skin), so you can reconstruct the 3D image and relight it under different conditions, environments, and viewing angles.

>Between 1892 and 1894, the French Impressionist Claude Monet produced nearly 30 oil paintings of the main façade of the Rouen Cathedral in Normandy. Fascinated by the play of light and atmosphere over the Gothic church, Monet systematically painted the cathedral at different times of day, from slightly different angles, and in varied weather conditions. Each painting, quickly executed, offers a glimpse into a narrow slice of time and mood. We are interested in widening these slices, extending and connecting the dots occupied by Monet's paintings in the multidimensional space of turn-of-the-century Rouen. In Rouen Revisited, we present an interactive kiosk in which users are invited to explore the façade of the Rouen Cathedral, as Monet might have painted it, from any angle, time of day, and degree of atmospheric haze. Users can contrast these re-rendered paintings with similar views synthesized from century-old archival photographs, as well as from recent photographs that reveal the scars of a century of weathering and war.
>Rouen Revisited is our homage to the hundredth anniversary of Monet's cathedral paintings. Like Monet's series, our installation is a constellation of impressions, a document of moments and percepts played out over space and time. In our homage, we extend the scope of Monet's study to where he could not go, bringing forth his object of fascination from a hundred feet in the air and across a hundred years of history.
Here's a paper about "Multifocus HDR VIS/NIR hyperspectral imaging and its application to works of art" that references his work, about how you can capture the 3D texture and hyperspectral reflectance field of artwork in a way that you could dynamically relight in different conditions and environments, interactively view in VR, use in high quality computer games and renderings, etc:
https://www.osapublishing.org/oe/fulltext.cfm?uri=oe-27-8-11...
>Multifocus HDR VIS/NIR hyperspectral imaging and its application to works of art
>Abstract: This paper presents a complete framework for capturing and processing hyperspectral reflectance images of artworks in situ, using a hyperspectral line scanner. These capturing systems are commonly used in laboratory conditions synchronized with scanning stages specifically designed for planar surfaces. However, when the intended application domain does not allow for image capture in these controlled conditions, achieving useful spectral reflectance image data can be a very challenging task (due to uncontrolled illumination, high-dynamic range (HDR) conditions in the scene, and the influence of chromatic aberration on the image quality, among other factors). We show, for the first time, all the necessary steps in the image capturing and post-processing in order to obtain high-quality HDR-based reflectance in the visible and near infrared, directly from the data captured by using a hyperspectral line scanner coupled to a rotating tripod. Our results show that the proposed method outperforms the normal capturing process in terms of dynamic range, color and spectral accuracy. To demonstrate the potential interest of this processing strategy for on-site analysis of artworks, we applied it to the study of a vintage copy of the famous painting “Transfiguration” by Raphael, as well as a facsimile of “The Golden Haggadah” from the British Library of London. The second piece has been studied for the identification of highly reflective gold-foil covered areas.
[...]
>5. Conclusions and future work: In this study, a complete framework is introduced for the hyperspectral reflectance capture of a painting in situ, and under high dynamic range conditions. Both the high dynamic range and the focusing problem due to chromatic aberrations have been overcome by using multiple captures with different focus positions and exposure times. A final hyperspectral reflectance cube has been computed using weighting maps calculated for both sample and flat fields and the quality of this cube has been tested and compared with a spectral cube captured in the usual LDR and single focus way. Our results show that the proposed method outperforms the best low dynamic range capture acquired. The sharpness index, as well as the color and spectral metrics show that it is possible to achieve good quality spectral reflectance images using a hyperspectral scanner in non-controlled illumination conditions. Moreover, as an example application, highly reflective golden material has been segmented from a facsimile. Our results show that by applying the proposed framework for capturing and processing, those areas which saturate the sensor in the usual capturingway, can be correctly exposed and segmented using the HDR multifocus capture. In future research, a new version of this framework will be developed including piecewise cube stitching for blending different cubes captured in different regions of big paintings. This will allow us to get closer to the painting and retrieve higher spatial resolution data, whilst still maintaining the spectral resolution and performance achieved in this study. Moreover, we will use the spectral reflectance images computed in this study, together with X-ray fluorescence measurements for the non-invasive pigment identification, in order to help the dating of ancient paintings and other works of art.
Proper, museum/gallery lighting really transforms art in a way that even prosumer screens simply cannot replicate, because you can move around the piece and the interplay of light against it does so much.

A billion is rather large, too. The pixels are 5 micrometers (1/200th of a millimeter). That is a lot smaller than the naked eye can see (about 1/10th of a millimeter)

Good tip on the Louvre, though. The best art is not the most famous, but whatever emotionally connects to you. And most museums have plenty of pieces that can do so.

>4.3. Additional example of application: identification of golden foil in a facsimile As a final experiment, an original facsimile from the British Library of London has been captured using the proposed framework. This facsimile (see Fig. 8), presents areas of golden highly reflective material. These kinds of materials always represent a challenge for image capturing systems. The problem is that depending on the illumination/observation geometry, the capturing device may receive specular reflections from the sample. If this happens, these areas would most probably saturate the sensor when using the exposure times needed to correctly capture the rest of the scene. Even if the illumination could be controlled, if the samples are not perfectly flat (as is the case in many artworks and illuminated manuscripts which have irregular texture), avoiding the saturated areas would not be possible by only manipulating the light sources. Therefore, even in controlled illumination laboratory conditions, the high dynamic range may still be a problem for this kind of samples. As in previous sections with the art painting, two spectral reflectance cubes of the facsimile were captured (one LDR and one HDR). These cubes were used for the automatic detection of those areas of the facsimile containing the highly reflective golden material. For such a purpose, the best results were found using the spectral metric goodness of fit coefficient (GFC) in both cases, in the near infrared spectral range from 700 to 1000 nm. The segmentations of the HDR and LDR cubes were compared with a manually segmented ground truth (shown in 8 center of bottom row). Since there are only two possible labels for each pixel (0 for non-golden material and 1 for golden material), the performance was compared as the percentage of matches between the automatic segmentations and the ground truth.

What I'd like to have next is a way to change the viewing direction and the lighting dynamically.
Paint color is not like a screen pixel. It changes depending on the light color, and direction.
Nightwatch maybe was intended to be watched lit by a dancing flame.
I am very hopeful for new rendering techniques like Nerfies, for this type of application.
It also has the potential to reverse the effect time had on the painting, so we could experience this it like it was painted.
There are (working) people who move to another place for many weeks but the vast majority of us does weekend tourism and 2 or 3 weeks vacations. Companies are not particularly keen to let one person go for 4 o 5 weeks. My personal experience when I was not self employed is that they don't like even 3 weeks in a single stint. The two longest vacations I had were one month long after I went self employed (hi Australia!)
I expect that working from home will make staying abroad for a long term more common, but it costs more money that staying at home (you're probably still paying a rent or mortgage) and it's usually not for families.
JFYI, Stendhal Syndrome (the term was born in Florence, by a psychoilogist that observed cases among tourists):

I did a few absolutely spectacular renders some years ago of a buddhabrot fractal, I don't remember the resolution but probably at least 100k x 100k, but after weeks of rendering I couldn't show it to anyone. I could only view it piecewise myself, as it didn't fit in RAM.
It's been a bit of a white whale for me.
I also have a high-res animated 4D rotation render that's half a dozen Gb, but can't be streamed online because compression algorithms absolutely massacre the details, and nobody wants to download files that big.
For some reason, the blues degrade, I don't know why.
Other than that, 4k HDR TVs are cheap. Obviously 4k is too few, but at least you can make it 75" for under $1000...
As far as animations go, ffmpeg can work miracles.

They will recommend that you plan on not "seeing everything" in a lot of guides. Believe that. Making some choices for things you want to see beforehand will cut down on the exhaustion that often comes over you after you end up in a room filled with dazzling tea cups from 16th century France and yet you're just desperately trying to figure out how to get out. It happens to the best of us.
The in person experience was so different than seeing this online because of the scale and detail.
That song in particular really captures the feel of walking around old Amsterdam for me, going to see the painting, and having the Dutch Golden Age come to life. Amsterdam is one of my favourite cities, and Ayreon has a lot to do with that.
I am astonished Ayreon is not a lot more mainstream popular.
An excerpt: > Touch is often practically impossible for ordinary viewers of many genuine specimens of very valuable things, such as a Gutenberg Bible or Michelangelo's David. Protected as they often are by glass encasings, barriers and surveillance technology, these objects are for the most part currently only sensorily accessible through vision.
> However, Korsmeyer rejoins, the sense of touch is still at work given the viewers' physical closeness to these objects and the subsequent in-principle possibility of touching them. Korsmeyer's connection between touch and genuineness explicitly resonates with recent claims about the role of contagion in experiences of the authentic. Cognitive scientists Paul Bloom and George Newman, among others, have argued that our valuing authenticity in objects is explained by our implicitly accepting a magical law of contagion (see, e.g., Newman and Bloom 2012). According to such a law, desirable or odious qualities can be transmitted by contact. So, for example, the value that we attribute to the original David kept in the Gallery of the Academy of Florence (and that we do not attribute to the 20th century copy currently visible in the Piazza della Signoria) is explained by the possibility of touching an object that Michelangelo himself touched. Korsmeyer refers to this feature of our implicit reasoning patterns as 'the transitivity of touch'.
Also, I notice that the boots they are wearing actually look very practical- they're shoes when you need shoes, and long boots when you need boots. What a good idea.
And are there any neurological studies about seeing/feeling physical objects versus virtual? And would VR help close the gap?
