The galaxy appears to be a smooth, elliptical galaxy. It exhibits a concentrated central bulge that graduates outwards into a more diffuse halo. The color is predominantly yellow-orange, suggesting a population of older stars with lower ongoing star formation. There is no obvious evidence of spiral arms or a prominent disk structure. The galaxy appears relatively undisturbed with no signs of major mergers or tidal interactions. It possesses a high degree of circularity, leaning towards being round rather than elongated. There is no indication of any strong active galactic nucleus activity, such as jets or strong emission lines in the visible spectrum. The light is consistent with a high mass galaxy with a low specific star formation rate. The light is red-shifted, and so therefore relatively distant.
