This galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elliptical galaxy. It has a concentrated central bulge that emits strongly. The galaxy exhibits an overall smooth structure with no discernible spiral arms or distinct dust lanes. Its shape is elongated, appearing somewhere between round and cigar-shaped. There are no obvious signs of any on-going major mergers or significant tidal disturbances, however there may be minor disturbances. The galaxy has a reddish hue, which would imply older stellar populations. Its substantial size suggests it is a massive galaxy. Overall, this appears to be a fairly quiescent system with a well-established morphology.
