A faint, uniform round halo which is diffusely brighter toward the center.
Steadily visible with averted vision at 133x, it was best seen at 200x.
The galaxy lies just to the NW of an "L" shaped asterism of 11th-12th

of a 133x (33') field centered on NGC7265, except for NGC7265 itself, none
could be seen.
