There are many places where you can find simple tactical puzzles (for example Chess.com's Tactics Trainer or Daily Puzzle) or more complicated puzzles with highly unlikely positions, where the key move is a totally unexpected move. There are only few places however where you'll find puzzles which are complicated but yet simple. Puzzles with few pieces on the board, but with a very elegant solution. In the Magnificent Puzzles I'll try to entertain you with such puzzles.
We have come to puzzle number 7 now. This one is composed by A.P. Gulayev and was published in 1940. The position after white's 5th move is just incredible! But you have to solve it first to see it :) White to play and win - Good luck!
