The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, concentrated elliptical or lenticular morphology. It has a bright, yellowish core with a gradual decrease in surface brightness moving outwards, which is also consistent with a bulge-dominated system. There are subtle hints of possible faint, extended structure. There is no clear indication of spiral arms or strong dust lanes. There are no obvious signs of ongoing major merger activity. Based on its luminosity it is a massive galaxy. There are possible signs of a minor disturbance, which could mean a potential merger of a low-mass object into the galaxy.
