Nobody Noticed This For 195 Years
My YouTube has stopped allowing me use of hyperlinks but if you still use UT just plug this in for a chess and art history lesson, combined, use the heading 'Nobody Noticed .. ' ~ see above ~ for talk of the devil, Morphy and to watch some detailed detective work that verges on the forensic.
Detailed analysis with a charming lightness of touch.

Analysts are still uncovering new stuff in the Evergreen and Immortal games. Chess is quite remarkable at its best.
