Attached. Every bar in the piece looks like the other three bars, except for two cadences at which beat 4 is a crochet in the bass. So IMHO it's to make sure the note is sustained right through the bar, as this movement lacks any pedalling. A tie here wouldn't make sense in the context. As I said in the other subthread, not being a pianist, I don't know which hand plays the quavers in the upper staff and whether that has implications for sustaining the note. Cheers, David.
