The galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elliptical system. It has a concentrated central bulge, emitting primarily in the redder wavelengths. A fainter, somewhat diffuse halo surrounds the central region. There is a hint of bluer light and perhaps some irregular structure on one side of the galaxy, suggestive of ongoing or recent star formation, or possibly a minor interaction or disturbance. A weak tidal tail cannot be ruled out. Given the overall shape, it likely lacks prominent spiral arms.
