Chess


"In C.N. 3770 Calle Erlandsson (Lund, Sweden) presented a painting by the Finnish artist Antti Favén (1882-1948), but little progress has yet been made in identifying the players. Tarrasch is clearly in the top left-hand corner, and the figure in the centre background, with a cigar, is Marshall. Is Alekhine lighting a cigarette in the centre foreground? Moreover, Gerhard Josten (Cologne, Germany) suggests that the man seventh from the right is Emanuel Lasker".
