Put something beside it for comparison!
That is one big Paph.! Nice flowers, too.

I opened two tabs, one for gigantifolium and one for
Hung Sheng Eagle. HSE's rothschildianum parent flattened the petals somewhat. They both look splendid!

Stripes, curls, pinks and browns, it is like the perfect ice-cream sunday, and yet looks sophisticated and modern. And huge? 36" is pretty massive. Well named!
