I should have mentioned, that all images are individual SVG objects.  
My MQ look something like this:

/* landscape: 6 columns */
@media all and (min-device-aspect-ratio: 1/1){
   object{width:15.7%}
}

/* portrait: 4 columns */
@media all and (max-device-aspect-ratio: 1/1){
   object{width:23.6%}
}

The desired criteria is the aspect ratio of the rendering area. I  
really don't want to use a width based query here.
