Olá, amigos!
Não encontrei uma chave com todos os nomes das pessoas que estão nessa foto. Identifiquei apenas alguns. Alguém consegue identificar os outros?

Desde já, agradeço a atenção de todos!!

Monte Carlo, 01/Fev a 12/Mar de 1902.
Teichmann, Mieses, Maroczy, ?, Pilsbury e Gunsberg (?)


Para ajudar, uma outra foto do mesmo torneio, com legenda:

This is my favorite. Anand just after he resigned Against carlsen in tal memorial. It was the last clasical game before the World championship match so the game was important.

Looks as if Carlsen is going to win the match with Anand. 

I only tryed to find how many matches ( in clasical chess ) Carlsen played against strong players - I couldn't find any.

It will be curious to see if he is so strong in playing matches. It is proved that it is different from playing in tourneys.

I would NOT want Anand to look at me like that and then have to face him in a match ... I think payback is brewing ...

These ones i think are correct but the 5th one doesn´t look like Gunsberg.

Can´t identify anyone else but nice photos though, i didn´t knew any from that year in that tournament.

Concerning the photos in #1430, Monte Carlo 1902 -

Several years ago I  made a website that detailed this tournament.  The reason for my interest is the location; the director, Arnous de Rivière; the president, Prince Dadian of Mingrelia; the greuling pairing system;  the scoring system (the same as in 1902): awarding ¼ pt. for a draw, but all draws had to be replayed and "in case of a second draw, another ¼ point is added to the score of each. Otherwise the winner of the second game will receive an additional ½ point, or ¾ in all;" the fact that Pillsbury play in 1902, which he didn't in 1901.  It was a very intriguing tournament for anyone interested in such things
