The galaxy presents as a relatively compact object. Its light distribution appears largely smooth, with a somewhat elongated shape; tending towards a cigar shaped appearance, though not highly pronounced. The color profile suggests a dominant population of older stars. The lack of clearly defined spiral arms or prominent dust lanes indicates a morphology that might be best characterized as an elliptical or lenticular galaxy. There is no obvious indication of major mergers or tidal disturbances in this image.
