The galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elliptical type, exhibiting a somewhat elongated shape that is in between round and cigar shaped. The central bulge is bright and concentrated, with a yellowish hue. The outer regions of the galaxy display a diffuse, greenish-blue glow, suggesting the presence of some younger stellar populations, although overall the galaxy appears largely quiescent. There are no prominent spiral arms or distinct features indicative of active star formation. The smooth and centralized morphology suggests the galaxy is likely a mature system, and there are no obvious signs of any major ongoing mergers or tidal disturbances, although there is a slight asymmetry which indicates that there could be a minor disturbance.
