According to us, the fingering given in EE by Fontana does not come from Chopin. Changing the fingering of the same key arrangement at its repetition an octave higher does not seem to be necessary in this case, although it is naturally possible. A tendency to avoid wider gaps between the 1st and 2nd finger may be observed also in the fingering suggested by Fontana in the Etude in C major, op. 10, no. 1, e.g. in bar 3.
