The galaxy appears to be elliptical in shape, exhibiting a high degree of smoothness. There is a concentrated central bulge that is bright and yellow in color. The outer regions of the galaxy fade gradually into the background, also with a yellow-red hue. The galaxy is fairly symmetrical, lacking any obvious spiral arm structure or significant dust lanes. No signs of active galactic nuclei or recent major merger events are apparent. The object appears relatively undisturbed with a low star formation rate.
