In the main text, we include the entry in FED, whose authenticity is highly likely. The same digit – along a few more – is given also by FEH; in turn, EE has a different fingering in this part of the passage, maintaining the hand position from the 1st half of the bar.

b. 221

composition: Op. 11, Concerto in E minor, Mvt III

..

In the main text, we add a cautionary  before f3. The accidental was added only in GE3. Interestingly, FE includes a cautionary  before f​​​​​​​1 in the L.H., which was not repeated both in GE and EE1 (→EE2). The accidental may have been added in the last phase of proofreading, which would explain its absence in GE; in EE, it was overlooked or considered unnecessary (it was added in EE3).

In FE, there is no  raising b2 to b​​​​​​​2. The inaccuracy, most probably repeated after [A], was corrected in GE and EE.

Fontana's fingering in EE
..

In the main text, we give the fingering of FED, which comes from Chopin. A similar hand position is suggested by Fontana in EE. In turn, the entry of FEH defines a different combination, much less convenient (it may be a mistake).
