The galaxy appears as a somewhat elliptical, unresolved object. Its core is a bright, reddish-orange hue, suggesting a population of older stars and/or significant dust obscuration. Moving outwards from the core, there's a transition into a greenish-yellow halo or disk. The green-yellow color in the outer regions might indicate the presence of younger stars, or emission lines from ionized gas. The smoothness of the light distribution implies a lack of significant spiral arms or distinct features. There is a very slight asymmetry, but the light is generally concentrated with a centrally peaked profile.
