The fingering of FEH complements the Chopinesque entry from FED; its authenticity seems to be highly likely.

Fingering in GE3
..

The 1st finger on the 4th semiquaver is almost certainly a mistake of FE (→EE,GE1→GE2) – the digit was most probably supposed to concern the next note (d1). The mistake was corrected in FED and FEH; an appropriate change was introduced also in GE3. In the latter and in FEH, in the further part of the passage, a few digits were added, clarifying the fingering indicated by Chopin at the beginning of the bar.

Our alternative suggestion

No fingering in FE (→GE)

Fontana's fingering in EE
..

The fingering of FEH determines one of possible continuations of the Chopinesque entry in FED, whereas Fontana's fingering in FE – a different one. In the main text, we take into consideration the entry of FED only, defining the most important element of the passage's fingering – the thumb under. As an alternative solution, we suggest a combination of the fingering of FED with three digits of FEH, which could have been entered by Chopin.
