No mark in A (→FE)

Wedge in GE1

Dot in GE2 (→GE3GE4) & EE

Lack of the staccato mark in the middle of bar 19 in A (→FE) should rather be considered to be an inaccuracy. On the other hand, it is not certain which of the signs that appear in this fragment – dot or wedge – would have been used by Chopin if he had noticed this deficiency. In the main text we give preference to the wedge, as Chopin added this sign, while proofreading similar bar 17 in FE. The signs were added by the revisers of GE and EE – wedge in GE1, dot in EE and subsequent GE,s.
