We present the first results of an 8-year spectroscopic monitoring of the Seyfert 1.5 galaxy NGC 4151 carried out with a CCD spectrograph at the 2.6-m Shajn Telescope of the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory in 1988-1995. Total of 202 H{ alpha} region spectra and 154 H{beta} region spectra have formed the data set. A ll spectra were calibrated in flux using the narrow emission lines which were as summed to be constant over the duration of the monitoring program.
