Anatoly Karpov was right when he said chess is a combination of science, art and sport as this game will make you view chess as more than just a strategic game that tests your wits and reasoning power. The game was played between German grandmaster Adolf Anderssen and his student Jean Duffresne and it features the Evans gambit which is one of the oldest and most exciting chess openings as white gains a lot of activity and rapid development for the price of a gambited pawn. Notable chess legends like Garry Kasparov and Bobby Fischer also achieved some very nice victories using this same opening.
This particular game is nothing short of an art masterpiece from the thrill of gambiting a pawn to the silent killer moves and the resulting mating picture, the beauty of which has gone unrivaled for years.
