The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, centrally concentrated object. It appears elliptical in shape, with a bright, yellowish core that fades gradually into a less luminous, bluer outer region. There are no obvious spiral arms or distinct features such as dust lanes visible. The galaxy's overall color suggests a stellar population dominated by older stars, although there is some evidence of ongoing star formation within the disk, judging from the bluer tint. There are no signs of recent or major mergers, though there is a very slight distortion of the galaxy's otherwise fairly regular shape, with the hint of a very small disturbance. The central bulge is significant compared to the disk component.
