If you look closely there is a plaque at the head of the table with the 314 number and this is my title. The photo was taken in Gdansk in the old shipyards building whose workers fought to abolish communism in Poland and gave the beginning to freedom changes in Poland and in the World. Only a few became known world wide like Lech Walesa but many many unnamed stood behind those few. The table is suppose to bring attention to developers and the new owners of this place that this is a unique place with the history important to the whole World and they should honor it in their future development.

The artist’s name is Czeslaw Podlesny, a sculptor, drawer, painter and poet.
