Long accent between in A

Short L.H. accent in GE

No mark in FE (→EE)

Long R.H. accent suggested by the editors

The long accent in A is written in the middle between the staves, so it is unknown to which hand it should be assigned. A comparison with analogous bar 283 proves that Chopin most probably meant accenting the R.H. In GE it was assigned to the L.H. (as a short accent) and in FE (→EE) it was overlooked.
