The galaxy presents as a somewhat disturbed system, possibly undergoing a merger. Its overall shape is elliptical but exhibits features suggesting interaction or recent tidal activity. There are multiple prominent bright knots of emission, potentially regions of enhanced star formation, distributed throughout the galaxy's body. The light distribution is not uniform, showing a relatively smooth central region surrounded by a fainter and slightly irregular halo. There is some evidence of asymmetry in the outskirts of the galaxy, further hinting at gravitational interaction. The color appears generally redder, indicating a relatively older stellar population with ongoing, but not extremely intense, star formation activity.
