The galaxy appears as a roughly elliptical, well-defined object. It has a smooth, centrally concentrated light profile, with a bright yellowish core that gradually fades into a more diffuse, bluish outer region. There is very little indication of spiral arms or prominent dust lanes, suggesting it is likely a relatively evolved system. Based on color, it appears to have a moderate amount of star formation. There is no visually discernible sign of any major ongoing merger events, although there are some minor disturbances. The galaxy's overall shape is close to round, but is slightly elongated.
