The galaxy appears as a relatively small, smooth object. Its shape is elongated, with an approximate axis ratio suggesting a cigar-like form. The color profile appears relatively uniform across the galaxy's body, hinting at a fairly homogenous stellar population. There may be a subtle central concentration of light. Based on the red color, star formation appears to be occuring at a low rate. There are no visible signs of spiral arms or a prominent disk. Likewise there are no signs of a major merger, though slight disturbances may be present. It has an apparent color indicating a moderate redshift.
