The galaxy presents as a somewhat elongated, diffuse object. It appears to possess a smooth overall morphology, lacking prominent spiral arms or a distinct central bulge. There is a subtle color gradient across the galaxy, with a slightly bluer hue on one side. The galaxy's red shift indicates its distance, and it is intrinsically quite luminous. The estimated mass suggests it is a massive galaxy. The star formation rate, though present, is relatively low, indicating that star formation is not a dominant process currently. The smooth morphology suggests a galaxy that is either elliptical or a quiescent spiral galaxy seen edge-on. There is no strong evidence of any major merger events.
