No pedalling in GE3

Our variant suggestion

The missing  mark does not have to be considered a mistake – such a notation is to be found on several occasions in Chopin's pieces (e.g. in the autograph of the Etude in D​​​​​​​ Major, Op. 25 No. 8, bars 19-20). The marks we suggest are the earliest and latest possible – due to harmonic reasons – moments of pedal release. It was already EE that considered the notation of FE to be inaccurate; in turn, an additional omission of the  mark is probably a mistake of GE3
