The galaxy presents as a primarily smooth, elliptical-like structure. It exhibits a high degree of central concentration, with a bright, luminous core that dominates the overall appearance. The light smoothly decreases from the core towards the outer regions of the galaxy. While generally smooth, there is evidence of subtle deviations from perfect ellipticity in the form of minor asymmetries in the outer regions. There is a slight but noticeable dust lane, or artifact, present. The galaxy shows a general lack of significant star forming regions.
