Lignes et Figures, 250 Problemes D'echecs choisis et commentes, Jacques Savourin

As in All Arts, selected chess problems of Shlomo Seider, Theodor Tauber.

I am now enjoying the beautiful compositions of Shlomo seider, two three movers, helpmates and fairies. His use of the Nowotny, and his harmonious keys and by play in the virtual phase of the game are stunning. The comments in English are helpful. Printed at roughly one problem to a page, with solution given below, with ample commentary, the diagrams are large, and the publication sumptuous. I hope to present a few problems from his oeuvre.
