I’m reading the novel "The DaVinci Code," and since I am an amateur symbolist and graphics person myself, I am totally fascinated. (So are enough other people that the book has been on the NYT bestseller list for 40 weeks.)
Like many people (Google for "clear copy of the Last Supper" to see what I mean), I want a decent copy so I can study the fascinating details given in the book.
The best copy I can find is really bad. I sent it to Photoshop and added a bit of blur to get rid of the endless dots. I then sent it to Image Optimizer and way over-optimized it because the resulting mushiness actually made the few details a little clearer.
My question is this: does anyone know (a) where I can get a clear copy for free, or (b) a technique (I have time but not money) for restoring a badly deteriorated DaVinci JPEG?
