The galaxy presents as a luminous, elliptical structure with a smooth overall appearance. The central region exhibits a high surface brightness, appearing nearly featureless and unresolved in the image. The galaxy's light profile appears to gradually fade outward from the core, with no discernible spiral arm structure or distinct features. Its shape is elongated, tending towards a "cigar" shape rather than being perfectly round. There is no obvious indication of a major ongoing merger or tidal disturbance, although there appears to be minor asymmetry or a possible hint of a faint extension on one side. Color gradients suggest a concentration of older stellar populations towards the center, with slightly bluer hues in the outer regions. The galaxy displays colors suggesting ongoing, but relatively low, levels of star formation.
