| Mikola Nagnibida [Wikipedia] | Mikola Nagnibida Problem, May 1979 [Thanks to Александр Никитин] |
Mykola Ivanovich Nagnibida was a direct mate, selfmate and helpmate composer.
He explored many facets of the Bukovina theme in helpmate: see examples in the Wikipedia article dedicated to the Bukovina theme. The definition of the theme is the following: in the diagram position, a square adjacent to the black king is guarded by a white piece. Black captures that piece and then blocks the square which has become unguarded.
More details about Mykola Nagnibida can be read on Wikipedia in Ukrainian.
