We present photoelectric and spectral observations of a hot candidate protoplanetary nebulaearly B-type supergiant with emission lines in spectrum -IRAS 19336-0400. The light and color curves display fast irregular brightness variations with maximum amplitudes ∆V = 0 m .30, ∆B = 0 m .35, ∆U = 0 m .40 and color-brightness correlations. By the variability characteristics IRAS 19336-0400 appears similar to other hot protoplanetary nebulae. Based on low-resolution spectra in the range λ 4000-7500Å we have derived absolute intensities of the emission lines Hα, Hβ, Hγ, [SII], [NII], physical conditions in gaseous nebula: ne = 10 4 cm −3 , Te = 7000 ± 1000 K. The emission line Hα, Hβ equivalent widths are found to be considerably variable and related to light changes. By UBV -photometry and spectroscopy the color excess has been estimated: EB−V =0.50-0.54. Joint photometric and spectral data analysis allows us to assume that the star variability is caused by stellar wind variations.
