In FE, there are no accidentals whatsoever in this bar. It is undoubtedly an error commited possibly by Chopin in [A] – cf. Etude in F minor, op. 25 no. 2, bar 56. Accidentals were added in both GE and EE:

  • the reviser of EE1 (→EE2) took the FE version at face value, and added a cautionary  before the lower note of the third on the 2nd quaver, thus confirming a1 there. This mistaken addition was corrected in EE3 after the analogous bar 59.
  • in GE the correct text was introduced immediately.

composition: Op. 16, Rondo in E♭ major

..

In FE (→EE1), there is no  raising a2 to a2. The error, obvious in this context, may have occurred already in [A]. The necessary accidental was added in GE and EE2 (→EE3). Similarly in bar 290.
