This galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elliptical system. The light distribution is concentrated towards the center, with a gradual decrease in surface brightness outwards. The overall shape is more in between round and elliptical than extremely flattened, but not perfectly circular. There's no distinct spiral arm structure visible; the light is generally diffuse. The color appears yellowish-white in the central region, suggesting a dominant population of older stars. The outer regions are fainter and show subtle hints of a bluer hue. There is no obvious indication of any major merger or tidal disturbance, although some subtle irregularities in the outer profile cannot be ruled out. The galaxy is moderately bright, likely a massive system.
