We observed the field of  the GRB  190114B (Siegel et al., GCN 23686) 
with AZT-33IK telescope of Sayan observatory (Mondy),   and  AS-32 
(0.7m) telescope of Abastumani Observatory.  The optical afterglow 
(Fernandez-Garcia et al., GCN 23694;  Pozanenko et al., GCN 23696; 
Selsing et al., GCN 23713) is detected in stacked images. Preliminary 
photometry is following.

The photometry might be affected by a nearby galaxy (r'=20.534, z_ph = 
0.32813+/-0.08585) at a distance of 5.6 arc seconds.
