EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from 1895, we see the esteemed German chess master Wilhelm Steinitz engrossed in a game. With his intense gaze fixed on the chessboard before him, he exudes an air of concentration and strategic thinking. Seated with poise and confidence, Steinitz embodies the essence of a true champion. The late 19th century setting adds to the allure of this portrait, transporting us back to a time when chess was not just a game but also an art form. As one of the pioneers in modern competitive chess, Steinitz's influence on the sport cannot be overstated. His innovative approach to strategy and positional play revolutionized how future generations approached the game. Photographed by Granger in New York City around 1895, this print captures both Steinitz's intellectual prowess and his commanding presence as a player. The black-and-white composition enhances our focus on his facial expressions and body language, revealing glimpses into his thought process during critical moments of gameplay. This image serves as a reminder that even amidst technological advancements and ever-changing trends in gaming, there is timeless beauty in traditional pursuits like chess. It pays homage to an era when mastery over sixty-four squares held immense significance and celebrated individuals like Wilhelm Steinitz were revered for their brilliance at every turn of the century
