Franciszek Starowieyski, great polish poster designer, died in Warsaw on February 23, 2009, after a long illness.

What if I had not seen "Teresa Desqueyroux" 45 years ago on a page in Anne's diary, what if I had not met the master on a bright Easter Saturday morning in 1683 in his Penthouse in Warsaw ? I was so fascinated by this noble man that I got hooked on posters ever since.
What if ? Maybe, there would be no Posterpage ...
