<톨스토이>

 

<막심 고리키>

 

<체 게바라>

<험프리 보가트>

카사블랑카의 주인공 험프리 보가트는 마스터의 경지로

체스 실력도 상당했습니다. 1955년에는 그랜드마스터 새뮤얼 레셰프스키와 무승부를 하기도 했습니다.

 

<살바도르 달리>

<레이 챨스>

20세기 영향력있는 뮤지션으로 소울 뮤직의 선구자 역할을 했던 레이 챨스는 거의 전 생애 동안 시각장애인으로 지냈지만 체스를 즐겼고 실력도 나쁘지 않았다고 합니다.

 

<라나 터너와 스펜서 트레이시>

체스마스터 허먼 헤르만 스타이너의 지도를 받고 있네요.

 

<알랑 들롱>

 

<마르셀 뒤캠프>

초현실주의 다다이즘 작품으로 기억되는 20세기 유명미술가 마르셀 뒤켐프는 뛰어난 체스 선수이기도 했습니다. 그는 체스 올림피아드에서 프랑스 대표선수로 출전하기도 했습니다.

 <나폴레옹>

체스 자료들을 살펴보면 프랑스의 정복자 보나파르트 나폴레옹에 대한 기록도 있습니다.

나폴레옹 당시 체스의 중심은 프랑스였습니다.

나폴레옹이 아마츄어들을 이겼다는 기록도 있지만 전쟁에서의

 발군의 실력과는 달리 체스 실력은

보통 정도였던 것으로 보입니다.
