The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, centrally concentrated object with a red-shifted spectral signature. Its morphology suggests a classification as either a spheroidal galaxy or an elliptical galaxy, with a possible slight elongation. The light profile is dominated by a bright central bulge. Fainter and more diffuse light extends outwards, creating an envelope surrounding the central region. Visual inspection does not reveal distinct spiral arm structures or prominent dust lanes. The colors indicate an older stellar population, with less recent star formation, as implied by the color indices. The lack of significant irregularities in the light distribution suggests that the galaxy has not undergone a major merger recently. However, a small percentage of galaxy zoo participants indicate minor disturbances which could indicate a smaller ongoing merger. The smoothness of the galaxy combined with its light profile suggest an early-type galaxy.
