  b. 185-186

The deletions visible in A in the 2nd half of bar 185 and at the beginning of bar 186 reveal that Chopin initially wrote the L.H. part an octave higher (in the treble clef, as it was 2 bars before). He committed a similar mistake in bar 197 as well.
See also the Ballade in G minor, Op. 23, bars 159-160 or the Scherzo in C minor, Op. 39, bars 345-347.
