The galaxy presents as a smooth, centrally concentrated object. Its overall morphology is elliptical, appearing slightly elongated with a cigar-like shape. The central region exhibits a bright, yellow-white core. The color shifts gradually to red as we move further away from the core. There's no readily apparent spiral arm structure or significant dust lane obscuration. There is a slight distortion, or at least there is some variation of color in one section of the outer part of the galaxy suggesting potential minor disturbances or possible tidal interactions, though no definitive merging events are obvious.
