Description
Haltadefinizione is a division of Franco Cosimo Panini Editore, specializing in the digitization of ancient paintings, documents and manuscripts. In 2006, in fact, it revolutionized the enjoyment of historical-artistic heritage thanks to the world’s first gigapixel digitization of a work of art: the Gaudenziana Wall of Varallo, an 8.6 gigapixel photo. This record was soon surpassed the following year by a 16.1 gigapixel shot of Leonardo’s Last Supper, which remained for years the largest digital image ever made in the world. Gigapixel technology has made Haltadefinizione image bank one of the most prestigious art image archives globally. A gigapixel image is a faithful high-resolution digital reproduction achieved by combining multiple detail images of the same subject. Hundreds, sometimes thousands of photographs that are “stitched” together; the end result is an image of a work composed of billions of pixels that allows you to zoom in every single detail dozens of times, maintaining a very high definition and allowing the viewing of elements otherwise invisible to the naked eye. In addition to educational and educational purposes, gigapixel images can be used for many uses, from cultural and historical and artistic heritage, to editorial and commercial ones.
