Tied f1 in FE (probable interpretation→GE)

The tie between the minim and the crotchet is placed in FE (→GE1→GE2) at the pitch of d1, so it may apply both to c1 and f1. Both versions are possible; however, in the main text, we choose it to be a tie of f1 due to a rhythmic analogy with bar 198 – playing the bass note on the 3rd beat of the bar.

No rest in FE (→EE,GE1→GE2)

Rest in GE3
..

In GE3, a crotchet rest was added over the chord in the L.H. on the 3rd beat. However, according to us, analogy with bar 198, which was probably taken into account, is only approximate and does not justify this addition, since a can be considered to be a continuation of the top voice.

The fingering, marked with details in EE by Fontana, undoubtedly coincides with the Chopinesque fingering, indicated with a few digits in FED. We give the latter in the main text, since it came into being during a lesson with Chopin, although it was most probably only in 203 that the fingering was written by Chopin himself. The same fingering results also from the additions, performed by a foreign hand, in FEH.
