Morphology
The meaning 'an entire page... without sharing space' is directly and compositionally derived from 'full' (completely filled) modifying 'page' (one printed or written side). This simple adjective+noun combination follows standard, cross-linguistic patterns, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily understand the MWE.
Etymology
Full page comes from newspapers and magazines. If an advertisement or photo takes a whole page with nothing else on it, it is a full page, so the term means 'an entire page' devoted to one thing.
