The galaxy presents as a moderately luminous, elliptical morphology. Its central region exhibits a concentrated, bright yellowish glow, suggestive of an older stellar population. Fainter, more diffuse bluish-green light can be seen closer to the central bulge indicating possible younger stars and some amount of on going star formation. The outer halo is characterized by a gradual decrease in surface brightness and a redder hue as the stellar population continues to age in this region. The galaxy's apparent shape is somewhat elongated, with the overall structure appearing relatively smooth with no obvious signs of major disturbances or recent mergers.
