It's basically the same technique. Same as Google Maps too
The tiled zoom thing is everywhere, and lots of museums publish high resolution images this way. There’s a handy tool to reconstruct an image at any zoom level from a url: https://dezoomify-rs.ophir.dev/
Ah, I tiled (hundreds of?) thousands of things in my previous job, but I didn't know that dezoomify tool, thanks!
