En passant is a move in chess, a special pawn capture that can only occur immediately after a pawn makes a move of two squares from its starting square, and it could have been captured by an enemy pawn had it advanced only one square. The opponent captures the just-moved pawn as it passes through the first square. • The en passant capture rule was added in the 15th century when the rule that gave pawns an initial double-step move was introduced. • In this game we see not only en passant capture but what is more interesting it also announces a checkmate! A rare scene in chess history! • ----------------- • Gunnar Gundersen vs A H Faul • Pietzcker Christmas Tournament (1928), Melbourne AUS • French Defense: Advance Variation (C02) • 1. e4 e6 2. d4 d5 3. e5 c5 4. c3 cxd4 5. cxd4 Bb4+ 6.
