This is the final game of the World Chess Championship match between Wilhelm Steinitz and Johannes Zukertort in New Orleans, 1886. Here, White chooses some very odd moves in an elaborate plan to take out Black's Queen! This is an easy-intermediate puzzle. : )

I saw the third move first, which I guess is how it's generally supposed to go.
