The galaxy appears as a centrally concentrated object with a smooth, elliptical morphology. There is a gradual decline in luminosity from the core outwards, and no discernible spiral arm structure or significant dust lanes are visible. The galaxy exhibits a somewhat elongated shape, but leans more to rounded than cigar-shaped. There is no obvious indication of major merging activity, although a minor disturbance cannot be ruled out. Color analysis suggests a population of older stars.
