The galaxy presents as an elliptical morphology, appearing largely smooth and relatively featureless. The light is concentrated toward the center, forming a bright, somewhat diffuse nucleus which seems reddish in coloration. Surrounding the core, the galaxy exhibits a more bluish halo, suggesting the presence of a population of younger, hotter stars in the outer regions, although these are not distinctly resolved. The galaxy's shape is noticeably elongated, leaning toward a cigar-like appearance. There is no apparent evidence of strong tidal features or ongoing major mergers. Subtler signs suggest some minor disturbance or interaction within the recent past given the slight asymmetry of the outer halo. The galaxy displays a moderate level of star formation, but no distinct HII regions or spiral arm features are detected.
