What's a good way of showing extremely high resolution images like this?

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.
