Isophotes and surface brightness distribution were obtained for the late type normal spiral galaxy NGC 7793 (morphological type SA(s)d) which is one of the Sculptor group. The calculated total luminosity BT is obtained as 9.44 and the corrected face on magnitude B degT is 9.10. The revised distance to this galaxy ¡â = 3.1 Mpc (de Vaucouleurs and Davoust 1980) is used for calculating the absolute magnitude M¢ªT = -18.36. From the isophotes, the position angle to the major axis is 101 deg, the mean axial ratio is q= b/a = 0.65, and the inclination is i = 50deg. The concentric indices C21 = 1.69 and C32 = 1.50 are well agreed to the average value of Sd type galaxies.
