The galaxy presents as a somewhat diffuse and relatively smooth object, likely an elliptical galaxy at an intermediate redshift. Its shape appears to be elongated, though not extremely cigar-shaped. There is no obvious spiral structure visible. Indications are that this galaxy is not involved in any significant merging activity with another galaxy. The galaxy has an absolute magnitude indicative of a luminous galaxy and an estimated mass that is substantial, likely a large elliptical galaxy. Its color suggests a lack of recent star formation. The blue light is not obvious, but it looks as if the galaxy is more concentrated towards the center of its light profile.
