You might wanna consider the recommended guidelines for here too:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Image_guidelines#Quality_and_fea…
Although the guidelines apply to quality and featured images, I think the
underlying reasons check.
At least, a 2MP resolution can be considered the minimum. I don't know if
any image below that threshold will look good enough these days on screens.

Hello!
I am in touch with a museum that is thinking of uploading images to
Commons. They are a bit uncertain about uploading high resolution, but I
told them the resolution they need to upload just needs to be good enough
for illustrating articles without being pixellated. The thing is, I am
unsure about the minimum size of such an image. I tried poking around the
instructions but didn't find a direct answer.
Do you know which size is "the minimum" that can be accepted on Commons?
Thanks a lot for your help!
Warm wishes,
