The galaxy presents as a roughly elliptical, relatively smooth object with a concentrated central bulge. The core region is the brightest and appears yellowish, possibly indicating an older stellar population. The light gradually diminishes moving outwards from the center, with the outer regions exhibiting a slightly bluer hue compared to the core, suggesting the presence of some younger, bluer stars. There is very little evidence of distinct spiral arms or dust lanes in the visible light, leading to the likelihood of an early-type galaxy, perhaps an elliptical or lenticular type. There's a subtle deviation from perfect circularity; it's elongated, though not dramatically cigar-shaped. Overall, the galaxy appears relatively undisturbed with no signs of major mergers or significant tidal distortions.
