The galaxy presents as an elliptical or lenticular system. Its overall shape is elongated, approximately cigar-shaped, but not extremely so, with a smooth, diffuse light distribution. The central region exhibits a concentration of light suggesting a bulge. The color profile suggests a relatively old stellar population, with a redder hue dominating. There is no clear evidence of spiral arms or significant dust lanes, indicating a lack of active star formation. There are very minor indications of disturbance within the galaxy.
