George,

The Wheel of Life image as shown is 34" high x 25.6" wide.  The brocade is 
larger, especially below the painting where there is a metaphysical square 
door 
signifying entry into the world of the thangka.

All the paintings were shot at the same distance so the measurements may be 
calculated by viewing the html source and multiplying the slice count by .2

For example, from the source:

cursor_pos(this,event,128,170,'slices/wheel_of_life/thangka_')

.2 x 128 = 25.6    170 x .2 = 34

John
