The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, elliptical object. Its overall color appears reddish-yellow, suggesting an older stellar population dominated by red giants. The light is concentrated towards the center, indicating a prominent bulge. There is no evidence of spiral arms or significant dust lanes. The ellipticity suggests a deviation from a perfect sphere. Possible minor tidal features or distortions may be present, however they are not strong. The lack of blue colors implies a low star formation rate. The galaxy does not obviously appear to be undergoing a major merging event.
