The galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elliptical system, exhibiting a high degree of central concentration. The core is bright and yellowish-white, suggesting an older stellar population, with redder hues in the outer edges. The galaxy is somewhat elongated in shape, but only slightly. There appears to be some distortion in the overall shape, possibly indicating a minor gravitational interaction or past merger event. There may be some ongoing star formation present, indicated by the bluer/green hue at the one edge of the galaxy, but primarily it is comprised of an older stellar population. There is no clear evidence of spiral arms or a prominent disk structure. The galaxy does not appear to be undergoing any significant merger, but rather a minor disturbance.
