The galaxy presents as a centrally concentrated, smooth object with an elliptical morphology. It exhibits a radial gradient in surface brightness, with a bright, compact core that diffuses outwards into a less luminous halo. The galaxy's color is predominantly yellowish-orange, suggesting a stellar population dominated by older, redder stars. There is no obvious evidence of spiral arms or significant dust lanes, which further supports a classification towards the elliptical end of the Hubble sequence. There is a slight asymmetry in the outer halo, but it is not significant enough to suggest a major ongoing merger event. Minor disturbances may be present. The general appearance suggests a relatively evolved system with a low rate of current star formation.
