{{Main|Opera Game}}
During Morphy's stay in Paris, he played a casual game at the Italian [[Opera House]] against the [[Duke of Brunswick]] and [[Count Isouard]]. While Morphy's opponents were not the strongest, this later became a well-known game due to its beauty and instructive value, often used by chess teachers to demonstrate how to use {{chessgloss|tempo}}, develop pieces, and generate threats.
