  b. 25

Broken slur in GC (literal reading→GE1) & FE

Continuous slur in GC (possible interpretation), EE & GE2 (→GE3)

The slur in bar 25 in GC is broken, yet the way in which the slur in bar 26 starts suggests, according to us, continuation of the slur, as it is in EE (and later GE). It is hard to state what was Chopin's intention in this place, yet this kind of differences has a minimal influence on the performance.
