{Laszlo Zoltan (1942-2008) was a Hungarian problem and endgame study composer.
The database only contains 27 studies by him, but two of them were first prizes.
Zoltan composed his best study when he was sixteen years old. We see a struggle
in which White uses the Novotny theme no less than three times in a row. This is
my version of the study; in the original version there was a black knight on d1
that was captured like dead wood.} 1. Rc6 $1 {The first Novotny. Black cannot
take the rook.} 1... Re5+ 2. Kd1 Be2+ {On its way to g4.} 3. Kc1 Bg4 {The white
pawns have been stopped again – time for the second Novotny.} 4. Re6 $1 {Again,
White occupies the intersection square of the black rook and bishop.} 4... Rc5+
(4... Bxe6 {was also insufficient since after} 5. e8=Q+ Kg7 6. c8=Q Re1+ 7. Kc2
Bxb3+ 8. Kd3 {Black has run out of arguments.}) 5. Kb1 Bf5+ 6. d3 $1 {An
important little move. Before White moves to the a-file with his king, he forces
the black bishop to move to d3.} 6... Bxd3+ 7. Ka2 axb3+ 8. Kxb3 Bb5 {For the
third time, Black has the white pawns under control.} 9. Rc6 $1 {And the third
Novotny – the decisive one.} 1-0

Мне нравится такое соединение синтеза с путешествием короля через доску. В нем есть динамическое развитие сюжета - длинная "шкала прогресса" короля, и краткие идейные вкрапления: три перекрытия Новотного (как здесь), три-четыре пата (как у Белоконя) или еще три-четыре чего-угодно.
