The galaxy appears as a smooth, elliptical object with a concentrated central bulge. Its overall color is a warm, yellowish hue, suggesting a population of older stars and a lack of significant recent star formation. The galaxy's shape is somewhat elongated, leaning toward a cigar-like appearance, with no prominent spiral arm structures or significant dust lanes visible. There are no signs of ongoing mergers or major disturbances in its overall structure, appearing mostly undisturbed. The light profile of the galaxy appears to smoothly decrease in intensity from the center outward.
