The galaxy presents as a moderately sized, relatively smooth elliptical, or potentially lenticular, system. Its overall color index suggests an older stellar population, with light peaking in the redder bands. The galaxy exhibits a high degree of roundness. There is a slight asymmetry in the light distribution. A faint and small companion is visible in the vicinity, although it appears to be distinct. There are no obvious signs of major mergers or tidal disturbances. Star formation appears to be low. The galaxy is receding at a moderate fraction of the speed of light.
