The galaxy appears to be an elliptical galaxy with a generally smooth and concentrated light distribution. Its shape is only slightly elongated. The core is bright and yellow, indicative of an older stellar population. Fainter blue light is present surrounding the core, possibly from a young stellar population. The galaxy shows no obvious signs of spiral arms or a disk, supporting its classification as an elliptical. There are no readily apparent signs of a major merger event. The galaxy's size is estimated to be around 6.5 kiloparsecs in radius. The red shift indicates that it is a distant galaxy.
