The galaxy appears as a somewhat elliptical, moderately luminous object. It has a concentrated central bulge that emits light across multiple bands, although the light is strongest at the redder end of the visible spectrum. It appears relatively smooth with no signs of well-defined spiral arms or prominent dust lanes, indicating it may be an early-type galaxy or a lenticular galaxy. There is a very slight elongation, where the galaxy is longer than it is wide. The overall color suggests a relatively old stellar population, as opposed to the presence of intense recent star formation. There is a potential, slight indication of an ongoing minor merger event; however, this is difficult to determine with certainty based on this image alone.
