Scientific paper

Electronographic photometry is used to resolve images of the object Ton 1542 (redshift of 0.064) into two components. These constitute a bright quasi-stellar nucleus with an absolute magnitude of -22.2, a B-V color index of 0.27, and a U-B index of -1.02, as well as an underlying galaxy considered to be an ScI spiral with an absolute magnitude of -21.8, a B-V index of 0.44, and a U-B index of -0.15. It is concluded that Ton 1542 is an example of a Seyfert galaxy with a very bright nucleus and supports the idea of a continuous sequence from 'classical' Seyferts to quasars.
