Just try this :

<html>
<head>
<style>
    .container{
        overflow:hidden;
        width:300px;/*change this to whatever you want*/
        height:150px;/*change this to whatever you want*/

        /*Of course, to get the desired effect, the size of the image "<img>" below must be larger than the size mentioned above*/
    }

    .container:hover{
        overflow:visible
    }
</style>

</head>
<body>
    <div class='container'><img src='myImage.png'/></div>
</body>

</html>
