The galaxy presents as a generally smooth, elliptical form, though some subtle features disrupt the otherwise uniform appearance. The core exhibits a high degree of central concentration, appearing as a bright, unresolved point source. The galaxy displays a somewhat cigar-like, elongated shape, and exhibits a slight distortion suggesting a possibility of past or ongoing minor gravitational interaction. There is little evidence of active star formation within the visible spectrum, with a predominantly older stellar population indicated by the overall color profile. The color indices suggest the light is more weighted toward the redder end of the spectrum with the blue light confined to the galactic nucleus. A faint, diffuse halo extends outwards.
