The galaxy presents as an elliptical morphology, elongated in shape with a cigar-like appearance. Its light profile is smooth and concentrated towards the center, indicating an older stellar population and low levels of on-going star formation. The color is generally yellowish, indicative of a evolved stellar population. There is no evidence of spiral arm structure or significant dust lanes. The lack of strong blue emission suggests a low rate of current star formation. There are possibly minor disturbances suggesting a past merger event.
