22.Nf3!
This move is in the spirit of the position. The knight is heading for the central e5-square and after transferring the queen to the kingside, the attack along the h-file will be decisive. Coordination and harmony of White's pieces create a symphony.

🔘 Country: Germany (federation/nationality United Kingdom)
🔰 In 1846, Horwitz lost a match against visiting master Lionel Kieseritzky, and another against Howard Staunton, losing 15.5-8.5. His best chess result was winning a match against Henry Bird in 1851. Horwitz played in the first international chess tournament, London 1851, again beating Bird in the first round, but losing to Staunton in the second and József Szén in the third.
Horwitz's Chess Studies (1851), co-authored with Josef Kling, is an important work on the endgame study and endgames in general. His true love was problems and together with Josef Kling wrote the classic book Chess Studies. He was the winner of the first study composing tourney in 1862.
