  b. 7-8

 in FC (→GE1)

 in FE & EE

 in GE2 (→GE3)

It is unknown who interpreted Chopin's notation more accurately – Fontana in FC (→GE1) or the engravers of FE and EE. The version of GE2 (→GE3) is certainly non-authentic (and erroneous). The authenticity of the version of FC is additionally supported by the compatibility of the range of the hairpins in both analogous places (here and in bars 53-54).
