The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, centrally concentrated object with a moderately elliptical shape. It exhibits a bright, yellowish core, surrounded by a fainter, more diffuse halo. There appears to be little in the way of distinct spiral arm structure or prominent dust lanes visible in this image, suggesting that the galaxy is an elliptical galaxy. There are no signs of any major mergers or tidal disturbances in the image. Based on the faintness of the light and round shape, the galaxy is likely very old and not currently forming a high number of new stars.
