The galaxy presents as a central, bright, yellowish core surrounded by a fainter, extended disk. The light distribution suggests the galaxy is relatively smooth in appearance, with an elliptical profile. There is a hint of bluer light within the disk, but it is not very prominent. The overall appearance is consistent with a galaxy that exhibits characteristics of both elliptical and spiral galaxies, possibly an early-type spiral, or a lenticular (S0) galaxy viewed somewhat edge-on. The roundness measurements suggest the galaxy is not particularly elongated, but rather appears to be relatively circular on the sky. There is some subtle evidence of a minor disturbance, although the overall structure is relatively undisturbed.
