The galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elliptical type, exhibiting a concentrated central bulge. The core region displays a notably higher surface brightness than the surrounding halo. There is little evidence of spiral arms or prominent dust lanes, but some faint, irregular structures are visible in the outer regions. The overall shape is somewhat elongated, though not dramatically so, with the major axis extending at a shallow angle relative to the image's horizontal axis. The galaxy's color profile suggests a population of older stars, evidenced by its redder hue; however, there may be some pockets of younger stars, as indicated by hints of green and blue light within the halo. The galaxy does not appear to be undergoing a major merger, although some slight disturbances are present within the halo.
