The galaxy appears to be an elliptical galaxy, exhibiting a generally smooth and concentrated light profile. The central region displays a bright, concentrated core with a yellowish hue, suggesting a population of older stars. There is little evidence of spiral arms or significant dust lanes. The galaxy exhibits a slight deviation from perfect circularity; it is somewhat rounded, though tending towards an intermediate shape rather than being cigar-shaped. The outer regions show a gradual decrease in surface brightness, fading into the background sky. There are some faint irregular blueish features scattered around the outer halo, these might possibly be indicative of low levels of ongoing star formation. Based on the overall morphology, this galaxy is likely to be relatively massive. There does not seem to be evidence of tidal disturbances or any signs of an ongoing major merger event. Faint signs of minor disturbances may be present.
