Given that:- a painting that was length=4 1/ 3  ft =13/3 ft and width=1 1/ 5  ft = 6/5 ft 

it means, the dimensions of that painting are different and that's why we can say that painting is in the shape of rectangle .

now, area of corals painting(rectangle)=length*width

                        =13/3 * 6/5

                         =13*2/5

                         =26/5

                         =5 1/5 ft square
