The absence of  here is certainly a mistake on the part of Chopin, who did mark the moment of pedal release in analogous bars 17, 25 and 29. Therefore we include that mark, which was earlier done in EE and GE2 (→GE3).

The slur in A – approximate literal reading

The slur in GE1 (→FEEE)

The slur of  GE2 (→GE3)

..

The exact starting point of the slur in A is unclear. In GE (→FEEE) it was drawn from the 1st crotchet. The comparison with analogous bars 17, 21 and 29 and the general analysis of the manner of writing slurs in A leads to the conclusion that Chopin almost certainly wanted to embrace only the chords with the slur. The point where the slur ended on the 2nd crotchet of bar 26 seems less controversial, yet even that detail was reproduced inaccurately in GE1 (→FEEE).
