There is no imminent checkmate here.

Yeah, I see people on twitter saying its checkmate, its not. Black queen might be in a good position if more pieces come into play.
Yeah, if it's black's move, he may be able to force white to choose between losing his queen or checkmate in the next few moves by playing something like Re2 and Rfe8, but this game really isn't close to over for either side.

It's from a historical game where white wins, Capablanca vs marshal
