- The present version appears as #5 in Breuer's "Ideengeschichte" No. 324. A correct #5 with the intended solution 1. Qb6 is obtained according to PDB Server by adding bBh7 and bNg7. In fact, they were present in the original version, but bPa3 was missing. Then also the cook 1. Bf3+ works, to get it as the only solution bPd7->d6 which was published in "Illustrirte Zeitung" on 5 January 1866, one day before the prize problem.

- "All that happens is as usual and familiar as the rose in spring and the crop in summer."
Marcus Aurelius Antoninus (121–180) Meditations, IV, 44.
This is a version of a cooked #5 (in the heavy old-German style, "Altdeutsche Schule," see wikipedia de, fr, lt, lv) which was dedicated to Konrad Bayer and set for prize solving ("Preisaufgabe") in "Illustrirte Zeitung," 6 January 1866 (on yacpdb you find a facsimile). The threemover is no adequate fix, as the position is not economical and the solution is too simple and dualistic: 1. Qb7+ Kxe5 2. Qd5+ Kf6 3. Ne8#; 1.. Ke3 2. Bf4+ or Qd5; 1.. d5 2. Qxd5+.
János von Szirmay (* 23.6.1834 in Nižný Hrušov=Alsókörtvélyes, † 22.8.1868 in Prague) Austrian-Hungarian-Slovak composer.
