The galaxy presents an overall smooth, elliptical morphology. A bright, concentrated central region is apparent, likely the galactic nucleus. The light distribution appears centrally concentrated, fading gradually toward the outer edges. There is very little evidence of spiral arm structure or prominent dust lanes. The light profile suggests a spheroidal component dominates its structure, with little evidence of a flattened disk. There are some slight disturbances in the outer halo, so there is a chance it is in the process of a minor merger. The red color suggests it may be a relatively old galaxy with a small population of young, hot stars.
