PixelSharp

Sets the image scaling of the page to Nearest Neighbor for sharp pixels
PixelSharp is a Chrome extension that changes the scaling of images on web pages to Nearest Neighbor, providing pixel-perfect sharpness. It is designed to enhance the display of pixel art and low-resolution images, correcting the blurriness caused by default linear scaling. Activate PixelSharp with a simple click or by accessing the extensions list. The extension works on images loaded from your computer when 'Allow access to file URLs' is enabled. The modification applies to the current page and will be reverted upon reloading.

Nice and simple. Just wish pressing it a second time toggled it off.
