The galaxy appears as a relatively smooth, elliptical object, exhibiting a concentrated central region and a more diffuse halo. The light distribution suggests a moderate amount of bulge dominance. The galaxy displays a slight elongation, appearing more "in-between" round and cigar-shaped. There is no obvious spiral arm structure or a strong central bar. The galaxy has a relatively small apparent size in this image, but is still easily detected. The color appears somewhat redder overall, indicative of an older stellar population, although there is still some bluer light visible. The galaxy does not appear to be undergoing any major merger activity or experiencing strong tidal disturbances, although there might be minor signs of disturbance.
