The galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elliptical galaxy. It presents an overall elongated shape, reminiscent of a cigar when considering its projected morphology. There is a distinct, concentrated central bulge that is noticeably brighter than the surrounding galactic disk. There appears to be little to no discernible spiral arm structure or dust lanes within the galaxy, suggesting a lack of significant ongoing star formation. The overall color is bluish-white, which could indicate a population of relatively young stars. The absence of any apparent major disturbances suggests that the galaxy is not currently undergoing a major merger event, though there might be some minor asymmetries that might suggest a recent minor disturbance. The galaxy seems relatively isolated within its immediate environment.
