NSImage and PNG problems

cocoa-dev,

I'm using Xcode 2.4.1 on Mac OS X 10.4.8 and I'm having problems
working with NSImage  which is created from a PNG file.  When I create
my NSImage using

  [NSImage imageNamed:@"White 1.png"];

the image size becomes 42x42 although the image size actually is
175x175.  The description selector gives the following:

NSImage 0x31e2d0 Name=White 1 Size={42, 42} Reps=(
   NSBitmapImageRep 0x3987a0 Size={42, 42}
ColorSpace=NSCalibratedRGBColorSpace BPS=16 BPP=64 Pixels=175x175
Alpha=YES Planar=NO Format=2

I don't understand why the image size becomes 42x42 rather than 175x175.

If I create the NSImage using a JPEG source, the image size becomes
175x175 as I expect.  The description selector gives:

NSImage 0x3a27e0 Name=White 1 Size={175, 175} Reps=(
   NSBitmapImageRep 0x3a1df0 Size={175, 175}
ColorSpace=NSCalibratedRGBColorSpace BPS=8 BPP=24 Pixels=175x175
Alpha=NO Planar=NO Format=0

My questions:

1) Why do I get a 42x42 image size when using PNG?
2) How can I get the 175x175 size I would expect using PNG?

It also puzzles me that when I view my PNG file in Xcode, it's
displayed in 42x42 resolution while the JPEG version is displayed in
175x175.  It further puzzles me that the file thumbnail in Groups &
Files in Xcode shows a thumbnail of a different image for both the
JPEG and PNG version.

Any insight is mostly appreciated.  Thank you.
