NGC 3748 is a lenticular galaxy with a bar[1] located in the Leo constellation.[2][3] It is located 440 million light-years away from the Solar System[4] and was discovered by Ralph Copeland on April 5, 1874, but also observed by Hermann Kobold, Lawrence Parsons and John Louis Emil Dreyer.[5]

Like NGC 3746, NGC 3748 also has a recessed core (RET).[4] It is described as, "moderately bright, fairly small, slightly elongated NW-SE, 0.4'x0.3' with a small bright core".[6]
