This galaxy exhibits an elliptical morphology, appearing cigar-shaped in its orientation to our line of sight. The central bulge is bright and concentrated, displaying a yellowish hue, suggesting an older stellar population. Extending outwards from the core is a fainter, more diffuse disk. There are no prominent spiral arms, but there is some visible texture to the disk. There is no evidence of any major mergers occurring. There appear to be slight disturbances visible in the disk. Based on the colors visible, this galaxy is likely undergoing moderate star formation. Overall, this galaxy appears to be a relatively massive system undergoing a period of slow star formation.
