Krylova (KIAM), S. Schmalz (KIAM), A. Volnova (IKI), A. Pozanenko (IKI) report on behalf of larger GRB follow-up collaboration: We observed the field of GRB 170519A (Ukwatta et al., GCN 21106) with 22cm SSS-220 telescope of ISON/Multa observatory(* starting on May 19 (UT) 16:02:54. We took 120 unfiltered frames with 60 s exposure. The optical transient (Ukwatta et al., GCN 21106; Izzo, et al., GCN 21108) is clearly detected in a combined image. Preliminary photometry of the combined image is following Date UT start t-T0 Filter Exp.
