The galaxy presents as a centrally concentrated object with a smooth, largely featureless morphology. Its overall shape appears elliptical, showing a high degree of circularity, with only a slight deviation towards a cigar shape. The light distribution is characterized by a bright, relatively small core that fades into a more diffuse halo. Color gradients are subtle, but there seems to be a hint of bluer colors in the central regions, possibly indicating recent star formation. There is no obvious evidence of a spiral arm structure, strong dust lanes, or tidal features suggestive of a recent major merger event. Minor asymmetries may be present, but are difficult to discern without higher resolution data. The general appearance points to a galaxy with a considerable spheroidal component and perhaps moderate levels of on-going star formation.
