the gallery is launched in an iframe when a user clicks a link on the page

You could use an HTTP referer... I%26#039;m not actually a web designer type of person, so I don%26#039;t know the specifics, but I don%26#039;t think this system is sound. Perhaps it%26#039;d be easier just to implement password protection.
