The galaxy presents a generally smooth, elliptical morphology, although not perfectly round. The core exhibits a bright, concentrated luminosity, indicating a substantial concentration of stars in the central region. Moving outward from the core, the galaxy gradually fades into a diffuse halo. The overall color appears reddish-yellow, suggesting a population of older stars and a relatively low rate of ongoing star formation. There is little evidence of spiral arms or significant dust lanes. A slight elongation is present, giving the galaxy a somewhat cigar-shaped appearance. There are no obvious signs of a major merger event, though a slight asymmetry is present.
