The galaxy exhibits a generally smooth morphology, with a bright central region. The galaxy appears to be primarily elliptical in shape, although not perfectly so; there is a slightly elongated dimension. A subtle disk-like feature is seen. The color distribution suggests that it is composed of primarily older stellar populations with a distinct region of relatively higher star formation. The color is overall consistent with a moderate redshift. Based on the morphological smoothness, this galaxy could be classified as an early-type galaxy. It does not appear to be currently undergoing a major merger, though there is evidence of minor tidal disturbance. Overall, the galaxy presents as a luminous, relatively evolved system, possibly a transitional galaxy that has consumed its gas and dust.
