You can pass the "pithumbsize" argument to the pageimages API with the desired size. However, it looks like there's no way to retrieve the original size used on the page.

You did actually specify a thumbnail link in your previous email so I assumed that would be okay. It should be possible to take the pageimage value and use a query like https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=imageinfo&iipro... to get the URL you want.
