Fingering written into FEH

No fingering in FE (→GE)

Fontana's fingering in EE
..

The fingering given by Fontana and the one written in FEH differ significantly. Interestingly, in analogous bar 441 Fontana gave a fingering concurrent with the fingering written in FEH and not his. That convergence is rather of an accidental nature, yet the differing approach to similar figures is symptomatic.

b. 197-198

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

Two-bar  in A (→FC→GE1, →FE→EE)

One-and-half-bar  in GE2 (→GE3)
..

A shorter  hairpin seems to be simply a result of carelessness of the engraver of GE2 (→GE3). It is worth noting that a significant number of revisions was performed in that edition, cf. e.g. b. 203-204, yet in the discussed case there is no visible reason for such an intervention.

[] suggested by the editors
..

Similarly as in b. 53-54, of which the discussed bars are a literal repetition, in the main text we suggest a [] mark, closing the pedal from the beginning of b. 197. The  asterisk was also added in EE.
