The galaxy presents as a flattened elliptical form, exhibiting a smooth, diffuse light distribution. The central region displays a high surface brightness, appearing almost luminous, and gradually fades towards the outer edges. The overall color is predominantly yellowish-white, suggesting an older stellar population with minimal ongoing star formation. There's a slight blue tint towards one end of the major axis, which might indicate the presence of a small population of younger, hotter stars or perhaps a region of low-level star formation. The galaxy appears largely undisturbed, showing no signs of major mergers or tidal interactions. Its elongated shape indicates a significant degree of rotational support or a triaxial structure. Dust lanes are not readily apparent, further supporting the classification as an early-type galaxy.
