The film of the game

The Opera Game

The game on the print, replayed: the moves at a walking pace, the lines drawing themselves on the board, a score made from the game.

On this device the film plays as a recording.

Demo film. Every ordered print will have its own.

The Opera Game as a Swiss-style print
The print it came from

Paul Morphy was twenty-one and had come to the Théâtre-Italien for the music. The Duke of Brunswick and Count Isouard had a chessboard in the box. What followed is the most taught attacking game in chess, and it turns out to be a very good print.
