The galaxy presents as a centrally concentrated object, generally elliptical in shape, with a high degree of smoothness to its overall light distribution. There is no discernable spiral structure or obvious dust lane. The core appears bright and slightly bluish. This color might indicate the presence of relatively young, hot stars or an active galactic nucleus. However, the rest of the galaxy is slightly redder, consistent with an older stellar population. The object does not seem to be undergoing any major merging activity.
