The galaxy appears as a centrally concentrated, largely featureless object with a generally elliptical morphology. Its light distribution suggests a dominant bulge component. Color gradients are subtle, exhibiting a slightly yellower hue towards the core, implying an older stellar population is more concentrated in the central region. The outer regions of the galaxy are dimmer and show some indistinctness, perhaps due to a lower density of stars and/or the presence of some dust, although clear dust lanes are not readily visible. There is no apparent spiral structure or bar. The overall impression is of a relatively smooth, early-type galaxy at a significant distance.
