The galaxy presents as a concentrated spheroid with a smooth, diffuse appearance. There is a bright, condensed central region. Moving outwards from the center, the light gradually fades into a more extended halo, exhibiting a radial falloff in surface brightness. The overall color is slightly yellowish, hinting at an older stellar population. The general form implies a system with little to no active star formation, lacking any clear spiral arm structure or dust lanes. It appears relatively undisturbed, lacking strong tidal features or signs of recent mergers. It seems fairly elliptical, more circular than cigar-shaped.
