3rd finger in A & EE

5th finger in FE (→GE)

Our variant suggestion

It is hard to determine whether the change of the fingering digit '1', which occurred between A and FE (→GE), is a result of Chopin's correction or the engraver's error. Both fingering solutions are natural and comfortable, hence we include both in the main text, with affinity toward the undoubtedly authentic fingering of A. It is the fingering of EE that draws attention, in which Fontana changed the indication included in FE to the one Chopin wrote in A.
