▪️ Savielly Tartakower
▪️ Polish and French chess Grandmaster and Journalist

♦️ Ksawery Tartakower was a leading Polish and French chess grandmaster. He was also a leading chess journalist and author of the 1920s and 1930s whose books remain popular even today. Tartakower is remembered for his sharp wit and aphorisms.

Full name : Ksawery Tartakower
Country: Poland & France
Born: 22 February 1887
Rostov-on-Don, Russia
Died: 4 February 1956 (aged 68)
Paris, France
Title : Grandmaster (1950)

♦️Tartakower is regarded as one of the most notable chess personalities of his time. Harry Golombek translated Tartakower's book of his best games, and in the foreword wrote:
🔹 Dr. Tartakower is far and away the most cultured and the wittiest of all the chess masters I have ever met. His extremely well stored mind and ever-flowing native wit make conversation with him a perpetual delight. So much so that I count it as one of the brightest attractions an international tournament can hold out for me that Dr. Tartakower should also be one of the participants. His talk and thought are rather like a modernized blend of Baruch Spinoza and Voltaire; and with it all a dash of paradoxical originality that is essential Tartakower.

♦️ A memorable game by Tartakower:
▪️ Savielly Tartakower vs Milan Vidmar
▪️ 1st Trebitsch Memorial (1907), Vienna AUH, rd 1, Jan-10
▪️ French Defense: McCutcheon. Chigorin Variation (C12)
