The wedge added by GE (→FE) was arbitrarily inserted by the engraver or the reviser, probably after comparing it with the following bars – in GE the discussed bar opens a page, while the bass octaves in the next three bars are provided with authentic wedges. The review of markings in all similar places – bars 123-130 and 139-146 – allows us to observe that Chopin provided with wedges some of the bass crotchets, but he never used a wedge to mark a quaver.
