  Honza Cervenka: Quite original and powerful handling of Semi-Slav turned to Dutch Stonewall from Tarrasch. 20...Nxe5 was possible too as 21.dxe5 Ng3+ 22.Kg1 (22.Kg2 Rxh2+ 23.Kxh2 Qh8+ with quick mate.) 22...Bb6+ is hopeless for white.

  gauer: Burn vs Tarrasch, 1895 gives annotations in one of his earlier stonewalls.

Mackenzie stopped his Colle/Stonewall ideas in: Mackenzie vs Tarrasch, 1885, but some somewhat related flank set-ups by Tarrasch up until 1898 went: O Mueller vs Tarrasch, 1890, W Hahn vs Tarrasch, 1890, H W Trenchard vs Tarrasch, 1898, making this type of Stonewall one of his regular weapons against non-e4 defences.

Taubenhaus vs Tarrasch, 1885 didn't involve d4, but black got his favourite flank-P storm again.
