  b. 24-25

in FCI

dim. - - - in A (→FC→GE, →FE→EE)

The  marking represents an earlier, less developed dynamic concept – the next indication in FCI would be the whole-bar  mark over the R.H. part in b. 32, in the final version replaced with a long accent in the middle of that bar. In A, in the discussed bars, Chopin initially wrote other markings too – two more or less whole-bar  marks.
