In 2018, the Russian Chess Federation, together with the Art Russe Foundation, held a chess photo contest among media journalists. Photographers from Russia, Holland, Greece, Latvia, Poland, and the Czech Republic competed for prizes in four nominations ("Children", "Game", "Amateurs" and "Portrait"). The theme of the photographs reflected all the spectra of chess life from the world championship match to the children's and amateur competitions.
 
The winners of the contest will be announced and awarded on December 29, 2018 in the Angleterre Hotel (Malaya Morskaya street 24, St. Petersburg). 
 
The contest is expected to become traditional.

Below you can see the finalists.
