Van Gogh's Starry Night as a Digital Mosaic, with Hippo

"Van Gogh - Starry Night"

"This image is a photomosaic of the famous painting 'Starry Night'. The image is made with over 210.000 tiny photographs and a total size of over 1.500.000.000 points in other words it is a 1.5 Gigapixel Image. Click over the image (Zoom In) until you start to see the tiny images."

Sure, it's a gimmick: but it's also a pretty good look at a great painting.

Until you get close enough to see the hippo, that is.
