Publisher: Maurice Schlesinger

Dedication: son Ami F. Liszt

Copy of the latest impression of FE2 from the collection of Chopin's works belonging to his pupil Jane Stirling. It contains fingering pencilled by the composer in bars 3, 17 (correction of a mistake) and 45-46. Moreover, a number of accidentals was added, overriding the printing or the pupil's errors, e.g., in bars 18-20 and 29. The meaning of the annotations in bars 51-52 is unclear.
