The galaxy appears as a roughly elliptical, moderately bright object with a smooth, concentrated central bulge. Its overall color is yellowish, indicating a population of older stars. There is no distinct spiral arm structure visible. The galaxy appears relatively undisturbed, exhibiting no signs of major mergers or significant tidal interactions. The outer regions of the galaxy fade gradually into the background sky, suggesting a low surface brightness halo. The lack of pronounced blue colors implies a relatively low ongoing star formation rate.
