  b. 52-53

The slur of A (conventional notation) and GE2 (→GE3)

The slur of A (Chopin's notation)

The slur of GE1 (→FE→EE)

The slurs linking b1 with a1 in bars 52-53 and 60-61 have in A the form of a short slur reaching the quaver a1 (see the note for bars 4-13). In bars 52-53, the slur notation is additionally unclear in A as the slur is only present in bar  53 (new page). This must have confused the engraver of GE1 (→FE→EE), who evidently misinterpreted Chopin's slur.
