The galaxy appears as a somewhat elliptical object with a smooth, centrally concentrated light profile. Its overall color is yellowish-orange, with a slight bluing towards the outer edges. The elongated shape suggests that it may be an elliptical galaxy or a spiral galaxy viewed at an oblique angle. No distinct spiral arms or dust lanes are apparent. The smoothness of the light distribution indicates a relatively evolved stellar population. There are hints of asymmetry in its outer regions.
