The galaxy presents as a primarily smooth, elliptical form. It is elongated, with a cigar-like shape. There appears to be no distinct spiral arm structure or prominent dust lanes. The galaxy exhibits a concentration of luminosity towards the central region, fading towards the edges. The dominant color is a blue-white hue, suggesting a population of relatively young, hot stars. The lack of irregular features or strong tidal distortions implies it is likely not undergoing a major merging event, though there appears to be a slight asymmetrical distortion on one side of the galaxy. Overall, the galaxy appears to be relatively quiescent in terms of star formation.
