For a 2D chess game you may use the Graphics View Framework | Qt Widgets 5.6[^].

The chess board can be then drawn on the background layer of the QGraphicsScene Class | Qt Widgets 5.6[^]. Designing the board should be no problem. Just draw the 64 rectangles filled with alternating colours.

The pieces can be implemented using the QGraphicsItem Class | Qt Widgets 5.6[^] when drawn by code. If the pieces has been created as bitmap images, use the QGraphicsPixmapItem Class | Qt Widgets 5.6[^].

The latter option should be the simpler one. You might search the web for existing chess pieces (but be aware of image copyrights if you want to publish your program).
