Museum tech roll call! I picked up leaflet for the same purpose and it's worked great - http://collections.artsmia.org/art/1218/olive-trees-vincent-...

The Rijksmuseum "Rijksstudio" site has been around for a few years and adopted leaflet very early on for image viewing: https://www.rijksmuseum.nl/en/rijksstudio/artists/rembrandt-...

Perhaps of interest to this sub-thread is "IIIF" (the international image interoperability framework), an attempt to standardize access to images (and collections of images) with a JSON(-LD) metadata model: http://iiif.io/

Nice project!

RE: IIIF, we're interested in going in that direction as well. Fortunately it looks like someone already wrote a plugin for it: https://github.com/mejackreed/Leaflet-IIIF

PS - Hey Kjell! This is Eric from the Getty. It's nice to see there are other museum folks on HN!

Yep - I figured based on the projects, but didn't want to call out your real ID in case that mattered. Lunch out on your plaza sounds pretty appealing right now compared to the weather up here!

Very impressive achievement! Even compare to Google Institute: https://www.google.com/culturalinstitute/beta/asset/olive-tr...
