Fingering written into FEH

No fingering in FE (→GE)

Fingering in EE

The fingering added in EE by Fontana is adjusted to the probably erroneous version of the 6th semiquaver of the bar (although its application in the version adopted in the main text is naturally possible). This fact most probably proves that it is totally arbitrary. The fingering of both sources, compliant in the ascending part of the passage, suggests changing the hand position marked by the placement of the 1st finger, which was on the anote in the previous passage. However, the Chopinesque fingering added to FES in the 2nd half of the bar, where the 1st finger is also on a1, suggests that Chopin meant to preserve this position also in the discussed passage, filling the 1st half of the bar.
