The galaxy presents as a luminous, elliptical structure with a generally smooth appearance. There is a concentrated central bulge that is bright and yellowish in color, gradually fading into a less concentrated halo. The overall shape tends towards being an intermediate shape between a round and elongated form, although there may be a slight cigar shape. The light distribution is centrally concentrated. There is no evidence of major tidal features or significant distortions indicative of a major merger event, or a strong disk structure, although some minor disturbances cannot be ruled out. There may be very little recent star formation occuring.
