    Author:
    Fine

    In the vast ocean of chess literature there are relatively few books about the endgame, and only a few of them can be considered true chess classics. And the most outstanding among the classics — Reuben Fine's book "Basic Chess Endings". Reuben Fine (1914−1993) was for a long time one of the best chess players in the world. As an author, Fine showed himself to be an excellent analyst who understood the full depth and peculiarities of the endgame. Having studied various types of standard positions, Fine established useful rules for practical play and proved himself to be an experienced teacher who, using skillfully chosen examples, was able to teach the reader all the necessary lessons and introduce him to the basic ideas of the endgame. Many generations of chess players in different countries of the world keep copies of “Basic Chess Endings”. For example, Mikhail Botvinnik considered Fine's work the most worthy of all that had ever been written on endgame theory.

    «The idea of continuing the autobiographical book “Steps” has been in the air almost since the moment it was written. Despite the bullet point at the end of the book in the form of a victory over Magnus Carlsen, my chess career continued for another full 14 years, and the subsequent stormy socio-political career is only gaining momentum.” (V. Bologan).  The book contains 75 games commented in detail and a number of fragments.

    Из глубины тысячелетий дошли до нас первые произведения искусства - примитивные скульптуры и наскальные рисунки, или, как их называют специалисты, писаницы и петроглифы. Писаницы древние художники выполняли преимущественно красной охрой, а также черной, желтой и белой краской, а петроглифы - это изображения не нарисованные, а вырезанные на поверхности камня. Сегодня наскальные рисунки обнаружены в 120 странах и регионах мира - даже в Сахаре. Но самыми древними образцами палеолитического искусства считаются писаницы пещер Испании, Южной Франции и Италии - знаменитые цветные рисунки животных. Именно их репродукции, сделанные чешскими археологами, были положены в основу набора "Кроманьонские шахматы". Каковы были представления наших предков о животном мире более 15 тысяч лет тому назад? Об этом рассказывают фигуры - ожившие на доске наскальные изображения. Шахматные роли распределились следующим образом: "король" - мамонт, "ферзь" - шерстистый носорог, "офицер" - древний бизон, "конь" - один из видов древних лошадей, "ладья" - древний европейский тур, "пешка" - пещерный медведь. В реальности большинство из них были гораздо крупнее представителей современной фауны, но даже в таком миниатюрном варианте все эти давно вымершие животные выглядят настоящими монстрами. Можно сказать, "Наскальные рисунки" - своеобразный симбиоз древнейших искусств, писаницы и скульптуры, одновременно стильный и исторически точный. Законченность замыслу дизайнера Михаила Дашцэрэна придает используемый для резьбы материал. Фигуры вырезаны из темно-коричневого бивня мамонта, найденного в Кемеровской области, пьедесталами для них послужили срезы бивня мамонта из Якутии (белый цвет) и Кемеровской области (коричневый), а также срезы костей позднемеловых динозавров из Юго-Западной Монголии.
