The galaxy appears to be a relatively luminous object at a considerable distance, characterized by a smooth, centrally concentrated light distribution. It appears to be moderately elliptical in shape, showing only a slight departure from circular symmetry. There is evidence of a possible minor disturbance, though the galaxy appears largely unperturbed with no prominent tidal features or strong asymmetries are apparent. The core exhibits a bright, concentrated nucleus, while the surrounding envelope fades gradually into the background sky. The overall color is yellowish, suggesting a dominant population of older stars. There may be some minor star formation occurring in the galaxy. Overall, the galaxy gives the impression of an evolved system with ongoing, but not vigorous, star formation.
