The galaxy presents an overall elliptical morphology, with a smooth, centrally concentrated light distribution.  The core exhibits a bright, yellowish-white hue, suggesting an older stellar population. The outer regions display a gradual fading in luminosity and a slight bluer color, which might indicate the presence of some younger stars. There is little evidence of distinct spiral arms or dust lanes; instead, it is a relatively smooth, featureless appearance. There are slight asymmetries, but it may be an artifact of the angle. Overall, this galaxy appears to be a relatively massive elliptical galaxy undergoing moderate levels of star formation.
