Subject: Mate in 16?

Cortlever published this study in 1986 as a "white to move and win". Is it
really a mate in 16 as I think? Any program finds 1.Bd4?

[D]k4r2/P4P2/Kp1r2P1/1P6/2B4p/1PbpB3/5P2/8 w - - 0 1

1.Bd4 Bxd4 2.Bxd3 Re6 3.Bc4 Rd6 4.Be2 Rf6 5.g7 R6xf7 6.gxf8Q+ Rxf8 7.Bc4 Rf5
8.Be6 Rxb5 9.b4 Rg5 10.Bd7 Rg6 11.b5 Rf6 12.f4 Bc5 13.Bh3 Rg6 14.Bf5 h3 15.Be4+
