The galaxy appears as a diffuse, somewhat elongated structure with a reddish-orange hue. There are two or three brighter, concentrated knots of light embedded within this extended structure. One is the core of the galaxy, while another might be a smaller, disrupted companion galaxy. There may be evidence of faint tidal features or distortions suggesting a past or ongoing gravitational interaction. A small amount of star formation is likely occurring based on the color of the light emitted, and the galaxy has likely settled into an elliptical or smooth morphology.
