The galaxy appears to be an elliptical type, exhibiting a smooth, relatively featureless morphology. There is a concentrated central bulge, possibly indicative of an older stellar population. The overall color gradient transitions from a yellow-white core region to a bluer periphery. The galaxy's shape is generally spheroid, though there appears to be a slight elongation. No spiral arm structures or dust lanes are immediately discernible, and there is no significant evidence of on-going major merger activity or strong tidal disturbances. The galaxy is estimated to be quite massive, with modest ongoing star formation.
