Bernat Fenollar

Bernat Fenollar, also Mossèn (Bernat de) Fenollar (Valencian Community, 1438 – Valencia, 28 February 1516) was a poet, cleric and chess player from Valencia, Spain.[1] He is one of the authors of Scachs d'amor or Chess of Love, a poem based on a chess game between Franci de Castellvi and Narcís Vinyoles, while Bernat Fenollar comments and establishes the rules.[1][2] It is the first documented game played with the modern rules of chess.[2]
