I thought of f4 first, but didn't see anything as just ...a3 ignoring it is good and I sensed lots of ideas of Bishop to stop the black a-pawn, but couldn't find a way. After a while, I looked up the solution. I'll keep it to myself so others can try this position too, but this is a nice endgame study. I completely missed the key idea grin.png

A very famous study with a ridiculously unexpected move! I think, if you haven't seen this study it will surely amaze you!
