This galaxy presents as a fairly regular elliptical. It has a smooth, centrally concentrated light distribution. The core region appears bright and yellowish, suggestive of an older stellar population. There is a slight color gradient moving outward from the center; the outer regions are a more muted color, showing signs of past, yet still minimal, star formation, but very little current star formation. The object exhibits a slightly elliptical shape, neither perfectly spherical nor highly elongated. There is no visible evidence of strong tidal disturbances, major mergers, or interactions with other galaxies.
