The galaxy appears as a relatively bright, moderately sized elliptical. It exhibits a smooth, concentrated light profile. The morphology is generally featureless with no obvious spiral arms or distinct dust lanes visible. The shape approximates a flattened ellipse, but the flattening isn't excessive. There is no evidence of a recent major merger or strong tidal interactions in the immediate vicinity. The color is moderately red, suggesting an older stellar population and lower ongoing star formation. Faint color variations within the galaxy itself are subtle but suggest a slightly bluer core than the outer regions.
