Hi,
well, at the end, raster images are always "rectangles" on disk, being a
matrix of "width * height" pixels.
Indeed, your image has an alpha band to mask out (making them transparent)
the pixels which are outside of the irregular shape you are talking about.

(from gdalinfo:
Band 1 Block=1186x13 Type=Byte, ColorInterp=Red
  *Mask Flags: PER_DATASET ALPHA*
Band 2 Block=1186x13 Type=Byte, ColorInterp=Green
  *Mask Flags: PER_DATASET ALPHA*
Band 3 Block=1186x13 Type=Byte, ColorInterp=Blue
  *Mask Flags: PER_DATASET ALPHA*
*Band 4 Block=1186x13 Type=Byte, ColorInterp=Alpha*

Cheers,
Daniele
