A long series of cat and mouse double attacks by Black to try to get a drawn K+R vs K+R+B ending until the domination theme unfolds. The student can learn much from this study, especially the final domination of the rook in the center of the board by the two bishops and king.
I checked and this composition won first prize, and I can see why. All considered, an elegant study.
