The galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, round elliptical. Its core exhibits a bright, concentrated luminosity, indicative of an older stellar population. The galaxy's overall color is yellowish-white, shifting towards redder hues in the outer regions. There is little evidence of spiral arms or a significant disk component. Some very faint indications of a possible disturbance or minor interaction are observed in the form of a very slight distortion of the outer halo. No strong evidence of active star formation or dust lanes is immediately apparent in the image. The general morphology suggests this is a mature system with primarily quiescent star formation.
