This chess study, by Albert Beliavsky, was published yesterday 21 June in the newspapper "El País".

The basic idea is to take advantage that black King hasn't free squares.
Nevertheless white King is threaten to mate (checks in g7 and g5).
The solution is amazing.

Reminds me of a windmill position :)

Amazing, my first candidate move was the only check check, as I saw that a knight on d5 would be quite dangerous.  But then the queen problem happened, and it was amazingly solved by the same move (had to backtrack as I didn't see Ne7+ immediately)

This was amazingly easy using my chess thought process.  Well, I still have a 70% success rate on chesstempo =/
