The galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elliptical-like object with a concentrated central bulge. The light is brightest towards the core and gradually fades into the surrounding space. There are no visible spiral arms or dust lanes. The color is generally yellowish, suggesting an older stellar population. The object exhibits a high degree of circularity with no noticeable tidal disturbances or major asymmetries, however, there is very subtle visual indication of a possible minor disturbance. The galaxy displays a defined edge, fading to a gradient where it is difficult to differentiate from background noise, giving an estimated size of approximately 3.3 kpc. Its apparent magnitude suggests this is a bright and massive galaxy, with a low star formation rate.
