That is the position as I understand. That pattern is not so uncommon in tactic trainings.

I did a quick scan through my RHP D.B. looking for the pattern for both sides.
There were a few but not as pure as the original. Other pieces or pawns were
covering critical flight squares. But, as always when I do a random search...Gold Dust!

Black follows the 'Check All Checks' dictum.
You keeping look at them no matter how silly they first appear.

I've never seen a checkmate like that and I am old and have been playing for a very long time. Very nice.

Okay, I don't do endgame studies. There used to be a website for tactics training seems to have disappeared. Tactics training vital on the journey to 2000+

There are still some which offer the service. I sometimes work on my tactics using chesstempo
