IC 4214 is a barred spiral galaxy [7] in the constellation Centaurus. [1] It's classified as a type SBaB galaxy. [2] It was first discovered in 1897 by astronomer Lewis Swift. [3] The galaxy is approximately 100 thousand light-years across. [3]

IC 4214 is a three-ringed structure, with its nuclear, inner, and outer rings. [8] A weak bar feature is present. [9]
