While surfing for chess topics, I encountered an interesting blog by a chess fan (2010 Chess Odyssey, for those interested) when the the following tag caught my attention:

WORLD'S MOST BEAUTIFUL CHESS PROBLEM 

Yes, I was intrigued.

I played through the problem, and while I cannot agree with the aforementioned title, I was thoroughly impressed with the unique aesthetics of the final position, and wanted to share what this blogger found so wonderful.

Play it through, and share what you think.

wonderful puzzle

he has the world at his feet with a potential 2 queens but his leader is under threat

It does look familiar. 

It truly is an awesome puzzle, if it was done in a real game I am at awe

A composition, not from a real game.

Thanks for the earlier reference link!

The link you cited, G. van Breukelen, is even better than my posting. :)

I played a similar game once in the 5th grade. Everybody thought I lost the game but our school won in the end. Nice article. Brings back memories
