The galaxy presents as a primarily smooth, elliptical morphology. Its core exhibits a high degree of central concentration, appearing bright and somewhat diffuse, with a yellowish hue. The outer regions of the galaxy fade gently into the background sky, displaying a gradual decrease in surface brightness. There's a hint of a flattened shape; it's more round than cigar-shaped, but not perfectly spherical. No distinct spiral arms, bars, or significant dust lanes are apparent. Overall, the galaxy presents a fairly undisturbed appearance, with no obvious signs of ongoing major mergers or tidal disturbances. The light is consistent with an older stellar population.
