    In 1972, an epic chess match took place in Iceland between representatives of the two great super-powers of the world: Bobby vs. Boris. Boris was backed by the Mighty Soviet Union, with late night phone calls coming from his handlers in Moscow, telling him what his next move should be. Meanwhile, Bobby stood alone against the might of the opposing nation. But, Bobby was not exactly alone. The Americans did not need to tell him what moves to make on the chessboard. Bobby already knew how to do that. Rather, what the Americans needed to do was somehow to get him to sit down at the board and play the game.

    The album includes the best works of the recognized master for 50 years of creative activity. Photo by Boris Dolmatovsky. For those who are engaged in chess, this authorship (in the magazine "64", in chess books, on the pages of newspapers, in particular, in the "Red Star") has become habitual for the last ten years. I respect the creativity of a great photo artist. For the first time drew attention to a photo of Boris Georgievich, published in "64": my parents met me at the airport on arrival from Baguio after a difficult match with Viktor Korchny in 1978. Since that moment it became a habit: if there is a major event in chess - see the photo of Boris Dolmatovsky. Somehow I was invited to perform in Greece, and I suggested that the photo maker make me a company. After Boris Georgievich handed me a bunch of photos about this trip, my wife Natalia (she is trying to collect all my photos) gave such an assessment: - Now I see what professional photography means! Of the major works of Boris Georgievich in recent years, I am pleased to note that he accompanied all the Aeroflot Open tournaments held by the Association of Chess Federations. In short: the signature "photo of Boris Dolmatovsky" is the highest quality mark in photojournalism. 12th world champion Anatoly Karpov
