NGC 1533 is a barred lenticular galaxy with faint spiral structure in the constellation Dorado and the seventh brightest member of the Dorado Group and 1° off the group’s center. It is surrounded by a vast arc or ring of H I which is connected to IC 2038 and IC 2039. The ring orbits around 32 kpc from the center. It is typical of lenticular galaxies in that star formation is weak in NGC 1533.
