The galaxy presents as a somewhat amorphous, yellowish-orange central bulge, approximately 5 kpc in radius. There is a suggestion of extended, fainter disk-like structure surrounding the central region that is slightly more bluish in color. The galaxy appears to be undergoing some form of disturbance. There are localized pockets of more intense star formation that are brighter and blueish. These may represent areas of enhanced star formation, possibly triggered by a minor merger or tidal interaction. Given its overall morphology, this galaxy does not appear to be a classic spiral or elliptical. Instead, it may be a galaxy that is in the midst of merging or interacting with another galaxy. The overall color and luminosity suggest a significant stellar mass.
