In Norblin's workshop Plonski learnt graphic techniques and became passionate of Rembrandt, to whose achievements in etching he remained faithful until death. In year of 1802 he published, in Amsterdam and Paris, where he used to work, a portfolio of nineteen aquafortes presenting various human types. It was his greatest work. By the end of life Plonski returned to Warsaw, where he died in a mental hospital a year later.
