The galaxy appears as a single, smooth, elliptical object with a concentrated central bulge. The light from the galaxy is mostly distributed in a centrally concentrated manner, with the brightness decreasing steadily toward the edges. Its color appears to be yellowish/reddish, implying an older stellar population with relatively little ongoing star formation. The shape is generally elliptical but does appear more "in between," not overly rounded or elongated. The overall appearance is undisturbed, without any signs of major mergers or tidal disruptions.
