The galaxy presents as a somewhat elliptical object with a smooth and diffuse appearance, suggesting an early-type spiral. Its overall color is dominated by bluer wavelengths. There is a bright central bulge, which fades into a surrounding disk-like structure with an inclination away from edge-on. The disk appears relatively homogenous, lacking the distinct spiral arm structures that would be characteristic of later-type spirals. There are no apparent dust lanes visible.
