The galaxy presents as a somewhat rounded, relatively smooth object. It is characterized by a central, more concentrated region which appears distinctly redder in color than the surrounding area. The outer regions show a bluer hue, extending outwards in a somewhat diffuse manner. There is only a minor indication of disk features or spiral arms. There are no obvious signs of major mergers or significant tidal disturbances. The object appears largely undisturbed and quiescent.
