I got mine from Wikipedia. It's from Google Earth's virtual visit to El Prado's museum. Just go to the page to get the image in various sizes, but for the real deal, visit commons here: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Tile_set_of_The_Garden_of_Earthly_Delights

Check the attachment for an example of the resolution. In the left panel, at the bottom there's a pool, zoomed twice. There's a little plant (fern?) in the bottom-center side of the pool, zoomed to the max resolution and pasted.

The only problem is that 30000x30000 pixels JPEG files are quite hard to deal with. I actually broke down each of these huge tiles into smaller 7500x7500 tiles so I can open them relatively quickly and without eating half my ram. Specially in some editors (Photoshop, GIMP) which take about 10 bytes per pixel.

I would say those two things are exclusive. I suggest you to read Tolkien's prologue to LOTR
