Stephane Javelle found IC 4594 = J. III-1393 on 20 July 1903. He accidentally reversed the sign on the declination offset from his comparison star so his position for J. III-1393 (later IC 4594) is in error. Once corrected, it is clear that IC 4594 = NGC 6075 (discovered by Stephan in 1881). PGC and LEDA only identify this galaxy as NGC 6075.

400/500mm - 17.5" faint, very small, broad concentration, faint stellar nucleus. Located 8' N of mag 8.8 SAO 84237.
