The galaxy presents as a fairly smooth, elongated structure. It exhibits a concentrated central bulge that is bright and yellowish, indicating a substantial population of older stars. The overall shape suggests an elliptical morphology, tending towards a cigar-like appearance with a noticeable ellipticity. There appears to be no readily apparent spiral arm structure or distinct disk features; the light is primarily diffuse with a smooth gradient outwards from the core. There is no evidence of significant dust lanes or recent star formation regions from what can be seen, which, combined with the color and shape, is consistent with an older stellar population with little ongoing star formation. The edges of the galaxy fade into the background sky with no signs of tidal tails or interactions.
