The galaxy presents as a relatively compact, elliptical structure. There is a smooth, centrally concentrated bulge of light which fades in intensity outwards. No spiral arm structure is discernible, and it appears to be generally featureless. The light distribution suggests a relatively old stellar population, and it seems that most of the light emission is from evolved stars. The dominant color is a muted blue. There is no distinct dust lane visible across the major axis. Overall, it has the appearance of an early-type galaxy with a lack of significant ongoing star formation, but some star formation is still likely occurring. The shape is close to circular, and there are no signs of recent or ongoing mergers.
