The galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elliptical galaxy. Its overall shape is moderately elongated, exhibiting a somewhat flattened spheroidal form, falling more towards the 'in between' end of the roundness scale. There's a concentrated central bulge that is bright yellow/orange, with the light intensity decreasing as we move away from the center of the galaxy. Fainter, diffuse material surrounds the bright core. There may be some faint indications of very minor disturbances in the outer halo of the galaxy. Overall the galaxy lacks any distinct spiral arm structures. The galaxy presents an undisturbed appearance indicative of a lack of recent major merger events.
