The point is clearance of the d7 square for the black king. Composers will recognize the move as a distant relative of the theme known as Mitrofanov’s Deflection, named for the fine Russian composer Leopold Mitrofanov’s gold-medal study from 1967. (White: #C8a5; pawns - a6, b5, d5, g6, h5 Black: #C8a7, #CDe1, #CDe5, #CCd6; pawn - h2. ) In the study, the queen steps in to block a check on a squoare where she can be freely captured, but so capturing removes Black’s ability to check on the diagonal.

But here the goal is more one of clearance than of deflecting any of the white pieces. It is a pity Black missed this incredible resource. Not only would he have contributed to chess compendiums of spectacular moves for all time but he may well have gone on to win the game. The shock value alone would have been immense. Of course the computer sees ...#CAg4 instantly as it is the only move. A less spectacular thematic precursor from master play comes from Topalov - Polgar, Novgorod 1996. In similar fashion White interposed his queen to create an escape path for his king.} 25. Rxg4+ Kxf7 26. Qxh7+ Ke8 27. Rg7 Kd7 28. h4 Nd5 29. h5 Kc7 30. h6 Kb6 $15 ) 25. Qh6+ Kxf7 26. Qxh7+ Ke6 27.
