It's an LG Dual Up (you can find the info in some earlier posts) Technically it's 8:9 so not a perfect square, 2560 x 2880 https://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-2

discontinued and going for almost double the msrp on ebay, alas

  And as I see there is no modern high resolution 1:1, 5:4, or 8:9 monitor on the market

    Indeed not, sadly.

Indeed, it is a DualUp -- the best display I have ever owned. I love it so very much, I planned to get a spare for when it dies, before they EOL'ed it. (I assumed it would not last long, as there can't be widespread appeal for such a display.) I missed that chance - but after months of setting eBay alerts, I found a local teacher that had a used one with just 400 hours on it (I have 17,000 hours on mine), and I bought it ($50 above retail price) and have it cleaned and waiting in a cloth sleeve for its time to shine, one day. I talk about it and using it on a Mac with HiDPI display modes in this blog post from several years back: https://bytecellar.com/2022/11/08/4k-scaling-is-not-a-problem-on-modern-macs/ https://bytecellar.com/2022/11/08/4k-scaling-is-not-a-proble...
