The galaxy appears as a slightly elongated, somewhat cigar-shaped structure. The light is centrally concentrated with a smooth overall distribution, and a general lack of strong features. The central region presents a yellowish hue, suggesting an older stellar population. There is faint disk-like structure hinted at in the blue tinges on either side of the central bulge. There is no obvious evidence of spiral arms or significant dust lanes. The galaxy displays a reddish color overall and is relatively isolated, without obvious signs of tidal interactions or nearby companions, although a possible minor disturbance cannot be ruled out.
