The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, elliptical-like object, exhibiting a centrally concentrated bulge that appears slightly yellow-orange in color. There is an indication of a fainter, bluer halo or disk surrounding the bulge. The galaxy does not appear to be undergoing any major mergers or significant disturbances. Its overall shape is more in-between round and elongated, but closer to round. There are no readily apparent spiral arms or distinct dust lanes. Overall the galaxy appears to be relatively quiescent in terms of ongoing star formation.
