The galaxy appears as a moderately bright, compact object. Its overall color is slightly reddish, suggesting an older stellar population. The galaxy's morphology is somewhat ambiguous. While the image suggests a generally smooth distribution of light, a subtle asymmetry or possible disturbance is observed. There may be tidal tails visible around the galaxy, indicative of a minor merger. The overall shape tends to be more in between the ranges of round or cigar shaped. There are no distinct spiral arms. This could be an elliptical galaxy, or a disk galaxy experiencing or having experienced a recent interaction. Additional spectroscopic data would be necessary to better characterize the galaxy's redshift, stellar populations, and potential for ongoing star formation.
