A work close to a standard size was probably bought ready-stretched. An unusual size suggests a stretcher made for it.

Where to hang it
Centre at 145 cm from the floor — so the top sits at 175 cm and the bottom at 115 cm.
Hanging heights assume the gallery eye line of 145 cm to the centre of the picture. Lower it a little for a room where people are usually seated.
