High Resolution Photos of Art Visit the site soon for "Last Supper" image. [A high-resolution image of Da Vinci's "Last Supper" will soon be posted on the Internet by an Italian technology firm, allowing art lovers and conspiracy theorists alike to scrutinise it from their own computers. The digital imaging firm, called HAL9000 after the killer computer in Stanley Kubrick's film "2001: A Space Odyssey", will post the 16-17 giga pixel image on its Web site (www.haltadefinizione.com) on Saturday (Oct 27, 2007) HAL9000 General Manager Vincenzo Mirarchi told Reuters on Thursday the reason behind the firm's decision to post the image on its Web site was to provide an innovative way to appreciate art rather than encourage speculation about its meaning. "This will make it easier for people to see it," he said, referring to the difficulties of arranging a visit to the hall where the mural is located.] Above Text from Yahoo!News
