The galaxy presents as a central, concentrated bulge of light that appears generally smooth in texture. The overall shape is elliptical, exhibiting a slight elongation. The color of the central bulge is notably yellowish-orange, suggesting an older stellar population. Fainter, diffuse blue-green light surrounds the bulge, possibly indicating regions of recent, though diminished, star formation within a broader disk or halo component. There's no strong indication of significant spiral arm structure or major disturbances due to mergers or tidal interactions, although subtle asymmetry could hint at minor disturbances. The galaxy displays a fairly uniform, even distribution of light, reinforcing the impression of a galaxy dominated by an evolved stellar population, but with a hint of ongoing star formation.
