                                    The IRAS observations of well-known Seyfert galaxies have been studied
in comparison with previously published ultraviolet and mid-infrared
data. The mid- and far-infrared emission from Seyfert galaxies has an
important extended component. Moreover, the UV-optical continuum is
insufficient to account for the far-infrared emission via dust
reradiation of ultraviolet photons. Therefore it is necessary to invoke
a source other than the active nucleus to account for most of the
far-infrared luminosity of Seyfert galaxies.
