This galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elliptical system. The light is concentrated towards the center, with a noticeable decrease in surface brightness as one moves outwards. The color is generally yellowish-red, suggesting an older stellar population, though there may be subtle variations indicating some regions of ongoing star formation. There is possibly a very slight visual disturbance in the morphology of the core that could possibly be a dust lane, though this would need confirmation. The overall shape is somewhere between perfectly round and slightly elongated. There does not seem to be an apparent merger or tidal disturbance. The size appears to be around 8 kiloparsecs.
