The galaxy presents a generally smooth, elliptical morphology. It exhibits a bright, concentrated central bulge that fades into a diffuse halo. The core region shows a yellowish-white hue, potentially indicating an older stellar population. Moving outwards, the color shifts subtly towards blue, suggesting the presence of some younger stars, although the overall light distribution remains dominated by older stars. There is no readily apparent spiral structure or prominent dust lanes. The galaxy appears relatively undisturbed, with no signs of major mergers or significant tidal interactions. Its shape is more round than cigar-shaped.
