The galaxy presents a generally smooth, elliptical morphology. It is elongated, displaying a cigar-like shape rather than appearing perfectly spherical. The central region exhibits a bright, concentrated core, surrounded by a more diffuse halo of light that is not perfectly symmetrical. There are subtle indications of disturbances within the halo, but no obvious signs of a major ongoing merger. Color gradients are visible, shifting from bluer hues in the outer regions to redder tones towards the center. No distinct spiral arm structures or well-defined features are seen, suggesting a relatively old stellar population throughout.
