Observing Notes
Harold Corwin
IC 4057 is a star, about 10-25 arcseconds south of a compact group of galaxies. Wolf's position, however, is that of the star, and careful examination of the image on the print of the original plate shows only the star. I have nevertheless given positions for the nearby galaxies as well. The SDSS shows the "middle" galaxy to be actually a double object, though its image algorithm has blended it into a single object.
See IC 3636 for more about Wolf's discovery plate.
