The galaxy presents as a centrally concentrated, nearly circular object. Its light is relatively smooth and even, with a gradual falloff in intensity from the core to the outer regions. The dominant color appears slightly blue. There are some hints of asymmetrical and possibly tidal features, but these are not readily apparent. This could indicate a relatively relaxed state, perhaps an early-type galaxy. Its apparent angular size is small. The galaxy is a magnitude 18.5-19.5 object at a redshift around 0.17, which seems consistent with a moderate mass. Based on its apparent color and features, this object is most likely an elliptical galaxy experiencing low-level star formation.
