Hmm, is that a rook on H4? Did I get this right, a bishop would be a large X, queen like the king, but larger?

Correct you are.

 These are symbols that represent the movement behaviors of the chess pieces.

Wow, a wonderful idea, really. Simple and beautiful. I like how piece figures just show their essence, nothing more.

The only thing I miss when looking at this board is two-colored squares - it's kind of hard seeing diagonals.

And where did you get this diagram, just curious?


 I made it with stamps and ink and paper.

 Thanks. I will see about getting an additional stamp made that has a way to show colored diagonals.
