The galaxy appears to be largely smooth in overall texture, with a somewhat elongated shape. The core is bright and diffuse, indicating a high concentration of stars. The color profile suggests an older stellar population, showing a concentration in the redder wavelengths. The light distribution diminishes gradually from the central region towards the outer edges. There is a slight asymmetry, where one edge has more of a cigarlike shape. It is likely an elliptical galaxy with minimal disk structure or active star formation present. There are no obvious signs of a major merger, though there may be evidence of minor gravitational interactions that have slightly distorted the smooth and simple structure.
