The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, elliptical object. Its light profile suggests a concentrated central bulge which dominates the overall luminosity. There is little evidence of spiral arm structure or significant dust lanes. The primary color is yellowish white, suggestive of an older stellar population. There is a slight elongation visible, indicating it is not perfectly spherical, tending toward a slightly elongated ellipsoidal shape. Evidence of tidal disturbances or major mergers is not readily apparent; the galaxy appears relatively undisturbed.
