The galaxy presents as a single, fairly homogenous, diffuse light source. Its overall form appears elliptical, trending toward a slightly elongated shape. There is a discernible central concentration of light that graduates outward, becoming less intense toward the edges of the galaxy. No spiral arms, bars, or dust lanes are visually apparent. The color is primarily a warm yellow-orange hue, suggesting an older stellar population. The galaxy appears relatively smooth and undisturbed, with no obvious signs of recent major mergers or tidal interactions.
