Check out the IIIF (International Image Interoperability Framework) 
Image API:  http://iiif.io/   You can use an image server that supports 
IIIF natively (e.g., Loris https://github.com/pulibrary/loris ) or a 
translation shim (e..g, with Djatoka).    There's client-side support in 
OpenSeadragon, IIPMooViewer, etc.
