Chessprints


As a footstep in the sand records just a single step of a journey, so too does a chess position record but a single moment in chess time.  Chessprints brings you some of those special moments in chess.

These fascinating positions were culled from composers, famous or sometimes not so famous games, or other noteworthy sources to tickle your imagination.

We present these Chessprints for the sheer joy they bring, but if you accidentally happen to learn something in the process...well, don't say we didn't warn you!
