This galaxy appears to be a relatively compact system with a bright, concentrated central region. The core exhibits a significant amount of light in the bluer wavelengths, which may indicate a population of younger, hotter stars or perhaps some level of active galactic nucleus activity. Surrounding the bright core is a faint, diffuse halo or disk-like structure. The disk component exhibits some faint features and slight irregularities. The overall structure suggests possible disturbances that could be indicative of a past or ongoing interaction. The galaxy does not appear to be a perfectly smooth elliptical, but neither is it a well-defined spiral. The color gradients suggest that the galaxy may have undergone a minor merger event.
