The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, centrally concentrated object. Its overall shape is elliptical, appearing highly axisymmetric with a noticeable lack of spiral arm structure. The color profile suggests a population of older stars dominating the light output, giving it a yellowish hue. There is a slight color gradient, with the central region appearing more yellow than the outer regions. No distinct dust lanes or prominent star-forming regions are readily apparent. There is a faint, diffuse halo of light surrounding the main body of the galaxy.
