This galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elliptical-like structure. It is centrally concentrated with a bright, yellowish core that fades into a more diffuse halo. The overall shape is somewhere between round and elongated, leaning slightly towards the cigar-shaped morphology. There are no obvious signs of spiral arms, strong dust lanes, or recent major merger activity. There may be a slight asymmetry or minor disturbance in the outer regions, but this is subtle. The color suggests a population of older stars, with modest, but non-negligible star formation activity. It appears to be a massive galaxy, with an effective radius of approximately 8 kpc.
