The galaxy presents as a largely smooth, centrally concentrated object. The overall color is a warm yellowish-orange, with a brighter, more saturated core. A subtle greenish tinge is visible surrounding the central region. There are no prominent spiral arms or disk-like structures immediately apparent. The shape is mostly round, with a very slight elongation but nothing resembling a cigar shape. There is no clear evidence of any major ongoing merger events or significant tidal disturbances.
