Social preview cards
A branded card for an object shared into a chat.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Open Access
CC0 means a visitor may legally share the image, crop it, print it and put it on a mug. A share card is the museum choosing how that looks.

What lands in the chat
Drawn in the browser from the object image and its record. Source: Stag at Sharkey's, George Bellows (American, 1882–1925), Cleveland Museum of Art, CC0.
Three aspect ratios drawn on a canvas from the object record, with a working PNG download. Because the image is served from the same origin the canvas is not tainted, so the export actually runs. In production the same routine runs at build time and the file becomes the og:image for that object.
