This galaxy presents as an elliptical or lenticular type, exhibiting a smooth, diffuse light distribution with no readily apparent spiral arm structure or dust lanes. The galaxy's shape is elongated, approximating a cigar shape. There may be slight indications of minor disturbances or tidal features, but the overall impression is one of a relatively undisturbed system. There is no strong evidence for active star formation regions. The galaxy appears to be a mature system with a stellar mass that is likely to be relatively high. The color profile shows a slight reddening, suggesting an older stellar population.
