The galaxy presents as a somewhat smooth, elliptical object. Its overall color is yellowish, indicating an older stellar population. There is a slight flattening or elongation, giving it a cigar-like shape rather than a perfectly spherical appearance. A faint bluish tinge is visible in the outer regions, suggesting a small amount of younger, hotter stars, or perhaps some ongoing, though limited, star formation. No prominent spiral arm structure or central bar is discernible. Overall, the galaxy appears relatively undisturbed, with no obvious signs of a major merger event.
