Misc. Notes Originally scanned at about 180pi, converted to 600dpi monochrome and cleaned manually. This was the work's 2nd publication, not first, after a 1844 release by J. Meissonier of Paris. The work was definitely published by December 1844 (the composer's correspondence testify that his Berceuse and (3rd) sonata were published by the time a particular letter was written.)

Misc. Notes scan: score scanned at 600dpi
filter: score filtered with 2-point algorithm explained in High Quality Scanning. I provide the original scanned version and the filtered, because the filter does some changes (smoothening, sharpening borders) and some portions of the scan get lost sometimes (when they are too small e.g.) - so you can choose your favorite. You may ask me for a manually cleaned version.
