The galaxy presents as a somewhat compact, luminous object. Its overall form is elliptical, appearing significantly more extended along one axis than the other, trending towards an oblate spheroidal shape. There is a dominant central bulge that diffuses outwards.

The galaxy exhibits a complex color profile. A dominant population appears to be older stars in the redder regions of the center. There appears to be bluer stellar populations in the outer regions. These could be younger stars that have formed more recently or simply less dust absorption. Faint distortions suggest possible interactions with another galaxy in the past. Some disturbances present in the galactic structure indicate tidal forces at play. This could signal a possible recent merger event or ongoing interaction. The galaxy hosts a substantial mass of stars and may still be forming stars at a low rate.
